FORTY-SIX

Chantal

Lantern jaw held a door open. ‘You wait in here.’

Chantal stepped into the room, Spartan at best. Bare white walls, functional desks, hard chairs. Only one window in the room, six vertical slices of glass lit up sodium yellow from outside. No noise, but for the hum of the strip lighting and the occasional drone of a passing car.

There’s a time and place for standing your ground. This was neither.

She sat at the desk, letting all her aches and pains go with a long sigh. If only. After a few deep breaths she looked back up at the cop. ‘Are those girls okay?’

‘They are on the way to a hospital.’

‘My partner, Craig Hunter. Do you know where he is?’

‘I cannot say.’

‘Have you got him in custody?’

‘I cannot say.’ She shut the door and left Chantal alone.

What a disaster. Where the hell was Craig?

Tulloch was at large. Had Craig caught him? Had Tulloch hurt him?

There was no sign of Matty or the other big lump. Three against one . . . Craig would’ve been heavily outgunned. Not that such a statistical detail would ever stop him.

The only good thing was that they had managed to stop Tulloch raping someone. Focus on Nora and Siobhan. Watch what you drink, girls. Blind trust will cost you dear . . .

She dialled Hunter’s phone. Still just voicemail. ‘Craig, I’m at the station. Call me when you hear this.’ She hung up and typed a message to Sharon.
