Crime Writers And Other Animals (2012) - Plot & Excerpts
‘We’re going to kill him,’ Natalie announced. Trevor looked shocked. ‘Kill George? But—’ ‘Well, come on, he’s never going to divorce me. How else can you and I be together – for ever?’ ‘Things’re OK like they are now . . . aren’t they?’ Trevor suggested tentatively. ‘We see each other every day as it is.’ But his objection was quickly blasted away. ‘It’s not just being together that matters. We need George’s money.’ Trevor bridled. ‘I’m sorry I don’t make more. They keep saying the recession in building’s over, but I don’t see any signs of it. In a year or two perhaps things’ll pick up, and I’ll be able to keep you in the manner to which you’ve become accustomed.’ Natalie’s hand was instantly stroking his thigh, soothing away the childlike hurt in his voice. ‘I’m not criticizing you, darling. You’re everything I’ve ever wanted in a man.’ He was. Ten years younger than her, with the easy strength of a manual worker. Dark curly hair, brown eyes.
