‘I’m not a good subject for hypnosis.’

‘It’s all we have left to try.’

‘Aren’t you being rather foolish to take the risk?’

‘Not if you give me your gun.’

‘Now that’s an idea, if I come up with bad news you can shoot me.’

‘I couldn’t squash a worm much less kill a man.’

‘You’d be surprised what you’re capable of, if you’re pushed into a tight corner.’

She took a deep breath and braced herself. ‘Did someone push you into a tight corner?’

He lifted his shirt and produced the gun from his trouser waistband. ‘I’ll go into the bedroom. Put it somewhere where I can’t get hold of it.’

He walked down the corridor and opened the door of the bedroom he’d slept in. Sometime, probably when he’d been changing, she’d made up one of the single beds with clean sheets, pillowcases and a duvet.

He stepped back to the double bedroom. She’d made up the bed in there too.

‘Which bedroom are you sleeping in?’

‘The one with the single bed,’ she replied.

‘Good idea, it’s further back, safer, more secure.’

He sat on the double bed. ‘What do I do now?’

‘Lie down, relax.’ She joined him.

‘On the bed?’

‘People do it every night.’

‘I’d feel vulnerable.’

‘You can’t always be in control.’

‘I warn you I’m not a good subject for hypnosis.’

‘So you keep telling me.’ She drew strength from her professionalism.
