The Holiday Murders
“Something bad must have happened — a crying woman was being held in the comforting arms of another, and then a couple of people broke off and went into the second house from the end of the street. Joe knew that an elderly couple lived there, although he didn’t know anything about them. Maybe one of them had died during the night. It had happened that way with his father. David had gone to bed, as he’d always done, at 11.00, and Joe had gone to bed soon after. Their bedrooms shared a common wall..., and there’d been no sound, no cry, nothing. Joe had simply found him the next morning. His father had died — that was all.
