Thornton accused him of carelessness. ‘You’ve lost them, you stupid pillock. I told you we should have kept closer behind them. They could be anywhere by now. For all we know they could have collected the diamonds and be heading for the M1 and back to London already.’ ‘If you think you can do better, you drive. How do you suggest I could have stayed closer on that long straight without drawing attention to this car? Do you think they’re so thick they wouldn’t have worked out whose car this is? That personal registration is a dead giveaway. I might just as well have hung a sign out of the window telling them we were following them.’The argument continued until they reached the centre of the town where they drove around for a while. Eventually, Mr Muscle pointed to the sleek lines of the Porsche that was parked prominently in the market place. He reversed the Mercedes into a vacant bay on the opposite side of the road and switched the engine off, glad of the silence, not from the noise of the car, but from Thornton’s whining.
