That evening, Penelope waited in the lounge room with her list of questions. Her mum was upstairs getting ready. Harry was upstairs too, refusing to come out of his room. As soon as Grandpa arrived, he went up to talk to Harry, which was perfect. Penelope wanted to interview Marty Logan with no-one else around to interrupt her. (She knew the others were close enough to hear her scream if he turned out to be a murderer after all.)

Penelope closed her eyes and tried to conjure up images of what he might look like. She hoped he didn’t have a bushy beard like Tall, Dark and Available. She could possibly cope with a small moustache, though. (Grandpa George had a small moustache and it suited him.) If Marty Logan had a ponytail, however, she would be HORRIFIED. She would be even more horrified if he also had tattoos. If he had a ponytail and tattoos and a bushy beard, Penelope would probably keel over as soon as she opened the door.

He was supposed to be there at 7pm. By the time the doorbell rang, it was actually 7.15pm. This wasn’t a great start. Penelope took one last glance in the hall mirror to check that she looked like a person-not-to-be-messed with. Then she opened the door.

Marty Logan didn’t have a bushy beard or a ponytail or any tattoos (none that Penelope could see, anyway). He was quite tall and a bit skinny. He was wearing a white shirt and blue jeans and had a very nice, not-murderer-y smile (though that could be a trick).
