The rain came down harder, making puddles on the lawn. I went back inside, the rubbish bag dangling from my frozen hand. The house was different â the atmosphere strained and tense, ringing with electricity, as if the storm outside was about to crack open the walls and go raging through the rooms.
âCilly.â Aliceâs pale face appeared out of the dark corridor. She beckoned with urgent, frightened motions. My heart thumped a tattoo as I shrugged off my wet coat, pushing back my dripping hair.
âSomethingâs happened,â Alice whispered. âDaddy called Henry into his study. And now⦠Now heâs in the hole.â
âWhereâs Jude?â
âDaddy locked him in one of the attic rooms.â
I put my hand over my chest, steadied myself, and took a breath. âWhat did they do?â
Alice shook her head. âI donât know. Daddyâs in his study on the phone to somebody. Heâs angry. Even more than he was on the night of the party â even angrier than he was about his wine.â Aliceâs gaze wavered, water spilling from her eyes. âI donât understand,â she whispered. âI have a bad feeling.â She shook her head. âMummy said we should stay out of the way. Weâre not allowed to communicate with the boys. She wouldnât explain anything. Sheâs gone to her room.â
Alice groped for my fingers and squeezed, but I couldnât return the pressure.
