But I put my foot down, arguing that even I wouldn’t be able to explain five women fighting in the back of a London cab in broad daylight. Four struggling women was positively my final offer. To my amazement, I won, and Fenella was volunteered to stay at Stuart Street and prepare her flat (because it had a ‘female-friendly aura’) as the deprogramming chamber for the unsuspecting Stella Rudgard. Veronica had to go, as it was her case. Miranda forced herself to come along, though I think she was beginning to have doubts, because she felt that Veronica needed a guardian angel. Lisabeth was an obvious first team choice because she probably had the best left hook of any of us if things got violent and, if all else failed, she could sit on Stella on the way back. To stop Fenella sulking, we gave her another job. I suggested that she be the one to ring Stella’s agency – Office Cavalry – at 9.05 am, unless we called her off. She was to say that she was a friend of Stella’s and that Stella was ill, gone down with a really, really bad case of ‘flu, and wouldn’t be able to get into work.
