The tinker’s wagon pulled into Lackabaun late in the afternoon, but the fellow driving the donkey wasn’t the man who’d visited the village every few weeks for the last thirty years. His accent wasn’t a West Cork one and the explanation he gave about being the nephew of the late tinker didn’t carry much weight. Instead of the usual throng of people who would gather round for the latest gossip, or to make a much-needed purchase, the villagers avoided him as if he had the plague.

He’d had the same reaction on all his stops, but he had his orders and, even if this did seem to him a waste of time, he knew better than to contradict his captain. He decided to spend the night here and he climbed into the back of the wagon to get some sleep. Old Fergus would have enjoyed the hospitality of the various townships but the new man had found the reception chilly, to say the least. Tomorrow, he would travel the few miles to Ballyshee, then onto Inchee Bridge. He dreaded the thought of returning to Glengarrif with no new information because Percival Grey would blame him, not any shortcomings in his own plan.
