“See?” Lloyd said, when Tom told him what Forensics had—or more to the point had not—found. “Sometimes things aren’t the way they seem.”

Tom looked exceedingly disheartened. “Last night I thought I had this whole thing sewn up. I was up all night—and for what? So I could prove that Ryan Chester is guilty of theft by finding?”

“And taking and driving away without the owner’s consent,” said Lloyd, offering mock encouragement. “Why don’t you pay Watson another visit? See if he’ll admit seeing Dexter this time. And perhaps he can tell us if Ryan really did see Bignall’s car.”

Tom sighed and nodded, and walked to the door, then snapped his fingers and turned back to Lloyd. “Got it,” he said.

“The breakthrough? Or just the answer to the riddle of the universe?”

“What’s been bothering me, guv. You said Dexter might have been there because he overheard Ryan and Baz planning to steal Bignall’s car, and went to try and stop them, but why would he bother? As far as he knew, Bignall’s car wouldn’t be there. Dexter would think he’d be at the rehearsal, wouldn’t he?”

Lloyd grinned. “You’ve been taking lessons from DCI Hill,” he said. “Another theory shot down. Well—perhaps it’s just as he said. They were cruising round, and spotted it.”

“Or perhaps he’s lying his head off, guv.”
