‘Can you tell us the reason why Tom Holland was staying over at Ray Barratt’s flat?’

‘He and his wife had had a bit of a falling out, that’s all.’

‘Do you know what about?’

‘A something and a nothing was all Ray told me. He was sure it would all blow over quickly, but then . . .’

Then they all died, thought Robbie.

‘How long did he stay?’

‘Four or five nights, yes, five I think, and then it was the stag . . .’

In the quiet of the big room, Robbie almost heard the girl sobbing through Charlie’s soft snores.

A something and a nothing. It clearly wasn’t serious as far as Joanne was concerned. But maybe Tom thought it was. Or Suzanne. Maybe he hadn’t walked out. Maybe she had thrown him out.

Robbie yawned. If he couldn’t ask Carter, Joanne seemed the best place to begin. He scribbled her name on a memo and left it on his desk.
