I imagine I did too, as I bolted for freedom every bit as fast as the cats had, dropping my Red Cross collection bag as I ran. The coins inside made a loud clunk on the floorboards and some of them escaped and rolled away into the darkness.
I sagged against the front gate for a bit of support, switched off my torch, and scrolled for DS Bruce Carver’s number. The cheerful yellow jacket I’d put on to match the tubs of daffodils in the main street of the village suddenly seemed a very untasteful choice.
“Ms Summerfield,” the DS said, sounding surprised to hear from me. Well, it had been ages since I’d had to tell him he should go to Drizzle Farm and have a word with Denny McKenzie about the body on the tree. Maybe he hadn’t expected to hear from me again? For sure I hadn’t imagined I’d ever find a third body in our sleepy village.
