McKenna caught up with Denning by the lift. ‘Well, that was a load of old wank.’

Denning pressed the button to summon the lift. ‘We had to let him go. We had nothing on him and that super smooth solicitor knew it.’

‘So we had one suspect and now we’ve let him walk out of here. It doesn’t look great, does it?’

The lift doors slid open and they both got in. As soon as the doors closed Denning felt a sudden tightness in his chest: McKenna’s fiery breath, exacerbated by the lack of air in the claustrophobic space. ‘We’ve examined every area of Leanne Wyatt’s private life. She had no enemies that we know of, and the only people in her life that might have had any motive for wishing her harm either have a solid alibi or there’s insufficient evidence to convict them. We’re running out of options.’

McKenna stabbed the button for the fifth floor and the lift doors closed. Denning felt the claustrophobia grow stronger. He needed some fresh air, or strong coffee: ideally both.

‘There is one option we haven’t yet looked at,’ McKenna said. ‘Maybe Leanne Wyatt didn’t know her killer.’ She let the words hang in the air for a second, then added, ‘Maybe it’s time we explored the possibility that she was killed by a stranger. In which case, we really are up shit creek.’
