Back to Corinne’s secret fantasy life, and in light of the afternoon’s conversations Ferreira felt even less convinced they would uncover the murderer there.

Sutton knew all three women and had had sexual contact with Corinne, which bumped up the likelihood of him being responsible, simply because prior intimates were statistically the greatest danger to women. Far more so than random attackers who jumped out of the shadows.

She didn’t like how flippant he was, how pragmatically he appraised Jasmine as out of his league, suggesting he considered Corinne fair game, expecting gratitude for his attention.

There was more to him, she thought.

But no potential lead could be left unexplored, so she sent over the emails to the tech department and asked them to trace the IP addresses, see who, if any, was local, then set Bobby to work on the mobile phone numbers, let him work his charms on the providers or the dating site firms, whoever was most susceptible.

There was no sign of meetings being arranged via text message. It was just more of the same with a few dick pics thrown in, the calibre of them suggesting Corinne was aiming down in age, attracting young men drawn by the idea of an experienced older woman. The photographs she’d sent back were all of her chest and Ferreira had to admit the boob job she’d had done was very good, a sentiment shared by the intended recipients judging by their responses.

The only odd note was in Corinne’s correspondence with a man who’d picked the username ‘HungDaddy’ – Ferreira checked; he deserved it. They’d engaged in the usual sex talk and his taste was pretty standard. But around a third of their conversation was about football, both of them Spurs fans and once he got over the initial shock of her interest they went on at length about tactics and transfers and injuries, seemed to be messaging each other as they watched games.

It was the only instance of friendly, vaguely bantering discussion in all of what she’d read and Ferreira began to wonder how much Corinne missed that kind of thing.

Would Brynn be who she usually dissected each match with? Her almost-brother, her oldest friend, the man her children called uncle and had accepted so smoothly into their family because he’d been a regular presence ever since they could remember.

How could you drop a friendship like that? Brynn still seemed attached to Colin’s memory and Colin was still in there. There was no reason for them to break contact. Except that Nina would hate it if they didn’t.

She tried to decide what she’d do in that position. Being told by your lover that you couldn’t see a particular friend was a massive red flag. Indicated controlling behaviour, the cutting away of a support network. At the very best it was an unreasonable demand to be at the centre of your attention.

She didn’t think she’d put up with it, but had never been placed in that position.
