âYouâre sure?â Lachlan paces round the hotel suite.
âOf course,â Mags says. âWhy wouldnât I be?â
âYou didnât move it?â
âNo. Iâd remember that. I woke up early. I came through and sat on the sofa, with the laptop, tried to do some research of the Guild of Falconers.â
âAnd then?â
âI left the laptop on the coffee table. Lachlan, Iâm not imagining this. Itâs definitely gone.â
âStolen?â
âWhat other explanation is there?â
Lachlan nods grimly. âYou thought I was paranoid. In the last hotel.â
âWhat if itâs just a chambermaid?â Mags tries to stay calm.
âOh, come on. Chambermaids donât steal laptops. Not in this kind of hotel.â
âWellââ
âNo.â Lachlan paces faster, shaking his head. âTheyâve found us.â
âWho?â
âI donât know. Anderson? He recognised me in the mirror while he was driving? You were right on his tail.â
âThat doesnât seemââ
Lachlan stops. âWait. Check other stuff.â He pulls her by the wrist into his bedroom. They open drawers, lift pillows.
âAnything?â Mags asks.
âItâs all here. Letâs do your room.â
Magsâ bedroom is tidy. Housekeeping have made the bed, laid out the ornamental pillows. A heavy feeling sinks into the pit of her stomach. The bedside table is bare. She moves closer. Her stuff has been swept off the table, scattered across the floor. She kneels to check whatâs missing.
âWell?â Lachlan asks.
âThereâs £200 in cash. Itâs still here.â
âSo, nothingâs taken,â Lachlan sounds relieved.
âNo.â Magsâ throat tightens. âThe picture.â
âWhat picture?â
âThere was a photo. I took it out of my purse and laid it by the bed, before I went to sleep.â She searches frantically. âItâs gone. Itâs definitely gone. They left the money, but took the photo.â
âWhat photo?â
Mags can hardly breathe. âMy kids.â
