Chapter Twelve

THE next morning in the warehouse found Tate in a rather delicate condition. He’d probably drunk too much wine, plus the full, unusually late evening meal hadn’t settled well in his stomach. And every time he swung himself off the forklift seat too quickly, his arse stung.

That made him smile, though.

He was on his way to the office when Percy intercepted him.

“Tate, boy?” Percy’s expression was unusually difficult to decipher. “Somethin’ y’ need to look at.”

“A problem?”

“It’s Prince Harry.”

Tate’s gut tightened, and not from indigestion. “Has he done something wrong?”

“Nope. Not exactly.” One of Percy’s bizarre skills was saying no while radiating yes with every muscle and fiber of his being. “You seen his handwritin’?”

“His…? Alex’s, you mean? Well, yeah. He printed up some notices for me yesterday.” Alex had used a lovely italic script, like something out of an illustrated bible. Tate had admired it, but then had to ask him to rework it in sensible block capitals because biblical script was never going to be suitable for NO ENTRY TO THIS STORAGE AREA WITHOUT AUTHORIZATION.

Percy grunted. He carefully placed a sheet of paper in Tate’s hand, then turned and walked back across the warehouse.

Tate glanced down. It was a reference for Alex Goodson, something the company always requested. Alex had provided several character references, but only one from previous employment. It had been emailed from Ibiza, of all places, on a hotel’s headed paper, and announced that Alex had been “a model of diligence and attention to detail.” The stilted language might have caught Tate’s eye as incongruous, but now he also noted the lovely italic script for the signature and printed name at the close of the letter. The suspiciously familiar script.

Bloody hell. Had Alex forged his reference?

Tate wasn’t a fool: he knew it happened. He and Percy had coped with it a few times to their knowledge. Whatever the reason, any evidence like this led to the employee’s dismissal, and immediate removal from the premises.

And what exactly was he going to do about it?
