Droz again. With a heavy heart, Lily read on. On the second of the ripped pages she had grabbed, almost five years had passed. She would’ve been nearly six years old at the time it was written, and soon after she’d turned six, Mama had died.

Saturday, 1st June 1889,

Riverside Walk, Chelsea

It was a beautiful afternoon. Lily and I spent the best part of it outdoors on the terrace, at the far end of the garden.

There is a good deal of shade there beneath the topiary hedges, and also a darling folly – a summer house, with a secret passage running beneath it that leads back up to the main house. At the far end of the terrace, a weeping willow masks an iron gate that opens out onto a pier on the River Thames.

Lily and I were sitting in deckchairs on the terrace around mid-afternoon when Professor Silverfish and Dr Droz paid an unannounced visit.
