It was 10.33 p.m. Harry got into his car in the pouring rain outside Micky Ford’s house. Micky had just told him everything that had happened to him on Wednesday. He also told him about his previous experience of seeing ‘something’ at North End. This was crazy, totally crazy, thought Harry, as he began to drive.
But he also felt that Micky believed every word he was saying. This with Jodie’s message and P.C. Terry Roberts’ account of his encounter with Tom last week confused him more than anything he had ever investigated in his over 40 years’ career in the police. He had to speak to Jodie and this Tom to see if what they said tallied exactly with all the details that Micky had told him – if it did then the world in particular north London was in for a very big shock.
Harry reached the bottom of East Heath Road; he was on his way to Jodie’s house in Brent Cross, where he hoped she would eventually turn up. Her parents were expecting her but she was not answering her phone for some reason.
