Isla Norman, the second on Mouse’s list, proved to have a husband and two children. She was called Isla Yardley, married to a haulage contractor and living in Stoney Middleton. It seemed she hadn’t gone on to university, had started work at the haulage company when she was sixteen and ultimately had tied the knot with the boss’s son, Gerry. Nice one, Mouse thought. She had remained in Anthony’s life through her husband; Gerry and Anthony played in the same cricket team.

Mouse tried hard to find additional information on her, but it seemed the idyllic life she had garnered suited her, and the contact with Anthony once school was over for them was minimal.

She put Isla on a backburner; sometimes the hairs standing up on the nape of her neck meant something, and she knew she would return to this woman, or her husband.

Mouse relaxed in her chair for a moment – how had Kat managed to find two typists chairs in the house without stepping foot outside the door? – and let her thoughts roam. She felt she knew the name Peter Swift, but pinning it down to why she knew it wasn’t happening.

Peter Swift… Swift… This was somehow connected with her dad, and she couldn’t bring it to mind. Had her parents known him? They’d both been dead nearly five years so she could hardly ask them, but she tried to bring her dad’s voice into her mind. Peter Swift?

Mouse decided to leave the thought meandering around her head, and moved on to number four. Keith Lancaster. She almost felt she could write him off when she discovered he had emigrated to Australia, but she persevered. Just in case, she told herself, just in case.

He had been very much in Anthony Jackson’s life until three years earlier, when he had left his homeland. He had worked for Anthony in an administrative position, and when she checked his bank statements she saw he had been on a hefty salary, whatever his admin role had been. What had made him leave such a generous employer? She saved copies of the bank statements, ready for printing when the new printer arrived, then came out of the website. She didn’t like going into bank’s websites, too much hard work.

Mouse knew Keith Lancaster would bear deeper scrutiny; leaving for Australia, on the surface, didn’t seem like a sensible plan, so what had made him leave? She would need to check if he had family there, if there had been some pressing personal reason for travelling all those miles, or if he had to leave for some other reason.

He wasn’t the murderer, she acknowledged that, but had he had some connection to the taxi driver?

She pushed her pen behind her ear, and took a deep breath.

Typing in Oliver Merchant’s name, still puzzling over why Peter Swift linked to her dad, Mouse discovered that Oliver Merchant was no more. He had taken one of Derbyshire’s many bends too fast, once too often. She tutted when she saw he had written off a Ferrari in the process of losing his life.
