Chapter Nine

Anna had every intention of heading straight back to the mansion when she left the derelict lot. She'd even hailed a cab and started to talk to the driver, when some peculiar new sensation overwhelmed her. The more she spoke with him and made eye contact with him, the more she felt a strange new presence in her mind. He was in there with her, or was she in his mind with him? It was hard to tell the difference.

"Say, do you have a phone?" Anna asked the man.

"Sure, love," the cabbie responded, his voice monotone, as though he didn't realize what he was saying.

"Show me." Anna stretched out her hand. "You don't mind if I borrow it for a bit, do you?"

The man didn't hesitate, just handed his device over. "Not at all. Glad to help."

Anna smiled at him and opened the rear door of the cab, taking a seat inside. "Just wait here for a bit, I'll let you know where I want to go in a second," she said.

So this was the hypnosis thing Michael had been talking about. It was a lot easier than she'd thought. In fact it came almost completely naturally to her. No way was a hardened London cabbie going to hand his phone to just anyone who asked for it. She could have so easily stolen it; not that she was planning to.

Anna held her breath as she typed in the website address from her old business card. It was basic, just a couple of pages of information, but no address. She read through the whole thing, studying it in detail. Slowly, memories of herself writing these words came back to her. She'd been full of excitement and hope at the time. Setting up her own catering business had been a longtime dream.

Something wasn't quite right, though, as though that memory had been tainted by a negative event.

It hadn't been a success, she thought. I couldn't make it work. A sense of disappointment filled her chest, as though she'd just now made the decision to give up on the business.

She looked down at the card, with its dog-eared corner and slightly faded text. She'd started off with a stack of 200 brand new business cards and this was the only one she had left.

And since the website hadn't pointed her to her home address, this clue seemed to be a dead end.

Anna looked up through the side window. The small shops on the other side of the road didn't look familiar. Her bag just happened to end up inside that building. As far as she knew, she'd never been here before.

"Just take me to Kensington Palace Gardens like I said," Anna instructed the cabbie.

She handed him his phone back through the coin slot in the Plexiglass partition between them.

"As you wish, dear." He started the engine and pulled out into traffic.

Anna sat back and listlessly looked out the window. This had been a waste of time. The memories she'd gained had only brought her down.
