Chapter 69

WHEN THE DOOR opened, Geoff Hewes had no idea how long he’d been in Al Loretto’s basement.

They’d given him water and some bread. They left a bucket in the corner for him. It stank. He’d slept, on and off.

The big guy who’d smashed in his face came for him. Hewes heard a series of strange sounds, then suddenly felt water blasting his face and chest. He panicked for a second then realized the big guy was hosing him down, like a dog.

The force of the water pinned him to the wall. He struggled to get away but he couldn’t.

“Strip off you idiot!” the big guy bellowed and Hewes felt something hit him in the guts. He looked down and saw a bar of soap on the concrete floor.

He took off his filthy clothes, used the soap, and a couple of minutes later the water stopped. He was flung a towel and some old clothes, jeans and a tee.

“Get those on and get out of my house, Hewes.”

Geoff followed the sound and saw Loretto at the top of the stairs into the basement. “I’m only having you washed because I don’t want you messing up my carpets. Show your face again and I’ll have it blown off.”
