Arianwyn hurried along Kettle Lane. There were only a few people wandering into the shops along the street and everyone was too busy with their own holiday preparations to notice Arianwyn hurrying off somewhere as usual.

As the Spellorium came into sight she saw Miss Delafield’s motorcar parked out the front. Her supervisor leant against the bonnet, studying her driving gloves. ‘Oh, there you are, dear,’ she said. But the usual brightness in her voice was gone. ‘I went to see you at the Blue Ox and I hadn’t a hope of finding you among the crowds in the marketplace. So I thought I’d wait here.’

Arianwyn unlocked the door and they both went inside. ‘Tea?’ she asked.

Miss Delafield shook her head. ‘I’m afraid I’ve got some news.’ She twisted her hands together. ‘Gimma Alverston has gone missing.’

‘Again?’

‘So it would seem,’ Miss Delafield replied gravely.

Thoughts and worries stormed through Arianwyn’s mind. What had happened? She wondered if she’d done the right thing in leaving Gimma behind in Kingsport, after all.
