Murder On Charing Cross Road (2015) - Plot & Excerpts
The first movement was not a carriage drawn to the door as she expected, but Luten slipping quietly out of the house and walking away on foot. He was becoming quite sly in his efforts to avoid her help. He was meeting his carriage at the corner lest she hear it arriving, since her bedroom faced the street. In a trice she ran to the top of the staircase and peered down into the hall. Seeing no sign of Evans, she concluded that he, believing she had retired and having been told by Luten that he would be gone for some time, had gone to the kitchen for some company and refreshment. She nipped quietly below, retrieved the whistle that always hung in readiness near the front door and left. She first ran across the street to her own former home to seek Black’s company. The house was in darkness, but that didn’t stop her. Black often watched the street in darkness for the comings and goings of the Brigade. But after three loud knocks with no answer, she knew he was not at home. She ran next door to Coffen’s house.
