The wind that blew across Roundhay Park seemed to be coming directly from the Arctic. Scudding grey clouds threatened rain, or possibly snow. It was no day for walkers and the park was all but deserted. The two figures who met by one of the benches alongside the footpath were muffled tight against the weather. It had the added advantage of making them virtually unrecognizable.

‘Are you sure all this was necessary?’

‘Absolutely. Stop worrying. Everything’s going according to plan.’

‘That’s easy for you to say. You’re not the one who’ll be in the limelight if it goes pear-shaped.’

‘It won’t go pear-shaped. That’s why we’ve taken such stringent precautions.’

‘The latest event is drawing a lot of attention.’

‘We’re playing for high stakes, far higher than before. You know the consequences if we fail. Think about that and compare the risk against the potential rewards.’

‘But was it necessary?’

‘It was prudent housekeeping.’

‘For fuck’s sake, Harry, you make it sound so normal. We’re talking about murder in case you’ve forgotten.’

‘Listen, we’ve both been in the construction industry a long time. If I were to tell you what the bridge supports on the M1 contain for example you wouldn’t be so fucking squeamish about a few slit throats.’

‘It still makes me nervous.’

‘If it eases your political conscience, it should be over now. We’ve achieved almost everything we planned. Once the election and the takeover are done with, we’ll be free and clear. Then the way will be open for us to really clean up.’

‘What if somebody ties us in to those murders?’

‘Who’s going to do that? The point of the whole exercise was to dispose of anybody who could blow the whistle on us. Now they’re out of the way. Nobody else knows anything except the paymaster and he’s too deeply involved to harm us without harming himself. Besides, I’ve enough on him to scare him shitless. He doesn’t even know what’s been going on yet. But he soon will.’

‘Won’t the people we’re paying panic?’

‘It’ll act as a timely warning for them not to step out of line.’

‘What about Brown?’

‘I have my own plan for dealing with Brown. I’ll tell you about it soon.’

‘I sometimes wonder if there’s anything you’re not capable of to get your own way?’

‘You’re happy enough to go along with it, you’ve never complained about the end results.’

‘Yes, and that frightens me too.’

‘I suggest you continue with your campaign, leave the rest to me.’
