While Ida had her attention on her pocket mirror, the rest of the group’s focus had shifted away. Only Tina remained watching her with a curious expression.

“Got it?” asked Tina.

“What?” said Ida, looking up from the mirror and shaking her head.

Tina leaned over and inspected Ida’s cheek.

“Yes, it’s gone,” she said with a tight-lipped smile. “Another drink?”

How the hell did he find me?

“Ida?”

“Yes,” said Ida. “Let’s get another drink.”

“Ok,” said Tina, already walking in the direction of the bar. “The girls had to go to the bathroom. They said they’d join us later.”

“Ok,” said Ida.

“Are you ok?” asked Tina. “Have you had too much to drink?”

“No, I’m fine,” said Ida.

Keep it together.

“You sure?”

“Yes,” said Ida. “I need to go to the bathroom quickly. I’ll meet you at the bar.”

“Ok, hurry back. My friend just texted me. He’ll be here any minute.”

“Ok, great. I’ll be right back.”

Ida walked to the bathroom while trying to not appear in a rush, doing her best to avoid looking in the direction of the plants. Inside she ignored Claudia and Sophie standing at the sink and went straight into the cubicle, where she broke out into a sweat and began shivering. What was she going to do? Should she tell Tina about Vidrik? Should she call the police? Should she try to escape? Could Tina even help her? Probably not. They were on a rooftop, thirty-three levels above ground. He would easily hunt her down. The police would be no use against him. Or would they? She felt helpless, unable to think straight, unable to escape the feeling that Vidrik was going to find her and kill her.

The shivering would not stop. Ida wanted to scream out loud or kick something. Oh, God. Think! What else could she do? She dug into her handbag and found her wallet, searched between her receipts and business cards until she found the paper that Frederich had given her. She could scarcely believe what she was about to do. There was no other choice. She reached into her handbag again and took out her phone, ready to dial the organisation which months earlier had tried to kill her.

The adrenaline had caught up with Frederich once he made it back to the Stern and Dolly. The driver’s seat felt claustrophobic now. He was acutely aware of the sound of his breath, could feel every micro-droplet of sweat covering his body. He knocked his fingertips continuously on the dashboard, unable to hold back the raw energy inside him. The seconds seemed to pass slower for him than they did for the outside world. He resorted to deep breathing and tapping his foot while intently watching the inside of the pub, ready to pounce on the tiniest movement Bibby made.

The last surviving group member was perched on a stool, leaning back on the bar with an arrogant grin, unaware of the fate of his friends. It was 1:43 am, and the crowd inside the Stern and Dolly had barely thinned out. How
