We hadn’t been around to Hermes Soundways since Fallok’s death, so that was where PS Locke and I went next. Bingo, there were two people inside, Irving Goodman and a woman whom I hadn’t seen before. When Locke knocked they had to open, and when I’d identified myself to the woman I said, ‘Now then, who are you?’ ‘Grace Kowalski,’ she said. ‘Do you know anything about the death of Istvan Fallok?’ I said. ‘I think I do,’ she said. Goodman just stood there shaking his head and looking miserable. ‘You think you do,’ I said to Kowalski. ‘Discuss.’ ‘We were told about Istvan’s death by the one who apparently caused it.’ ‘Apparently?’ I said. ‘Who apparently?’ ‘Justine …’ she said. ‘Two,’ said Goodman. ‘Justine too?’ I said. ‘Justine also?’ ‘Justine Number Two,’ said Kowalski. ‘Are you telling me there are two Justines?’ I said. ‘Are they twins?’ ‘Not born that way,’ said Goodman. ‘I see,’ I said, ‘they weren’t born as twins but they became twins later in life.
