Chapter Eleven

Everett frowned as he approached his shop after a short lunch break. There was a wheelbarrow on his doorstep. A white sheet with the name of St Andrews inked into a line down the side covered the contents of the barrow.

His steps faltered as he worried that he knew what was inside. The last time something had been left on his doorstep it had contained a hand. This was significantly bigger than a basket and the sheet implied that the wheelbarrow was filled to the top. The smell had him stopping a few feet away. He steeled himself to check even though the odour had already confirmed what was inside.

He had worked on a battlefield for six weeks. He had thought then that was the most horrifying thing he would ever behold but he thought this would be close. At least then they had quickly disposed of the ruined body parts. He steeled himself and breathed through his clenched teeth.

Using the tip of his walking stick he flicked up the edge of the sheet. Even that small glimpse had his gorge rising. Feet and hands of multiple people were haphazardly piled up with no respect to their previous state. He recoiled.

This was worse than the hand. There was no way this had been done by accident. Someone was leaving him a message.

The sound of running feet had him spinning on the spot. Two peelers were headed toward him, full tilt with batons raised. He dropped his stick and held his hands out. The two men barrelled into him and took him to the ground.
