Revenge in the Cotswolds (2015)
“She had forgotten to enquire as to the significance of the name – some sort of plant, she suspected.
It was half past four. Nearly time to feed the dogs and think of something for herself. It would be eight or so before she could phone Drew, as she was itching to do. The intervening hours would pass slowly, as she knew from past experience. Supervising dogs, taking Gwennie outside, unpacking, working out how to operate the various controls for the television – all these diversions and more ...only took her to six o’clock. Accustomed to similar spells of inactivity in the first days of a house-sit, she pottered in the kitchen, frying herself two eggs and a fishcake, that came from her own grocery supplies. The Fosters had made it clear they expected her to see to her own catering requirements, only using condiments and sauces from their cupboards.
