Chapter 21

I returned to the station the next day, thinking it would be business as usual. In fact I was about to get another lead in the case, because a relative of one of the victims said they wanted to speak to me, with new information I had not heard before. I was excited to see what it was, to see if it got me anywhere, and most importantly, to see if it gave me any more evidence to convict Ian Green of the murders.

"Hello," said the woman, who appeared to be in her late sixties.

"What can I do for you?" I asked her as politely as possible, just to show that the case of her relative was in good hands.

"Well," said the timid woman, "I am...was the daughter of Fred Lesley."

"That's right," I said, showing her that I had at least thought about her father. "He was the elderly man."

"Yes," she said, apparently nervous. "Anyway, the news said that you have arrested Ian Green. I came in as soon as I could."

"Yes," I replied, beginning to get excited at the thought that it might lead somewhere.

The woman continued. "Well, I think I have more evidence to help convict him, if he is guilty."

By now I was very excited. Hopefully this woman was correct, and Ian Green had slipped up somewhere.

"Please, tell me," I replied.

"Well," she said, "I don't know where else to start, but at the beginning."

"And that is a very appropriate place to start," I said, trying to be as reassuring in my voice as possible, while pushing her to tell me about this evidence as quickly as she could.

"Well, it started a few months before my father was killed. I was coming to see him one day, and when I left, it was getting dark, and I got the fright of my life when I saw Ian Green standing outside my dad's window!" she cried.

"Really?" I said, glad that my hopes were correct.

"Yes. Me and my sister got the fright of our lives. We asked him what he was doing and he just said, 'sorry. I was looking for something.' But that wasn't the first time we seen him there. We seen him twice after that, me and one of my brothers, and then we think we saw him a few times after that, peering into my father's window."

"But you can't say for certain that it was him the last few times?"

"No, because it was really dark, but we can only assume that it was him. He must be a head case anyway. Why would he peer into an old man's window like that?"

"Well, hopefully, I'll find that out for you," I replied. "But the only explanation I can give you right now is that Mr. Green has problems."

"Well, does that help?" the elderly lady asked.

"Yes, it does actually," I said. "It helps a lot."

I was now more confident with the case; I was more confident that Ian Green was indeed the killer I was searching for.

Then, suddenly, something came to me.
