Presumed Dead (2010)
“Only people from Dawson’s Clough would call this piddling bit of water a river. At this point, on the northern edge of Dawson’s Clough, it was possible to paddle through it, or even step over it if you didn’t want to get your feet wet. Tonight there was a thin layer of ice at the edges.
Sean was sitting on a seat that he knew from memory had been donated by some woman in memory of her dog, Trudi.
“Thanks, Trudi!” He raised his almost empty can in a toast.
Having been refused a drink in the Legi...on, Sean had been on his way home. But he’d called at Asda and they’d been kind enough to sell him a couple of cans of Stella to drink on the way.
He’d had to stop by the river because his legs were objecting to the walk. Despite the cold, it was a pleasant enough night. Courtesy of Trudi’s bench and a couple of street lights, it was a decent place to stop for a drink, too.
Before the Legion, he’d been in the Commercial. He’d hoped that chap might come in—what was his name?MoreLess
