Poisoned Ground: A Hakim And Arnold Mystery (Hakim & Arnold Mystery 3) - Plot & Excerpts
Rashida had come home smelling of smoke. Things had to change. She was going to book flights to Egypt for the first day of the childrens’ school holidays and then she was going to dismiss that private detective. She’d do it in writing so there could be no misunderstanding. She’d deliver the letter to Mrs Hakim’s office herself. She’d done nothing and Salwa was angry. Why hadn’t Mumtaz Hakim tried to tempt el Masri herself? She was a good-looking woman, he had to want her. But she hadn’t. She’d said something about how it wasn’t right to ‘trap’ someone like that. But he was a criminal! Salwa couldn’t understand it. Surely if el Masri was a criminal it didn’t matter how he was unmasked? And why hadn’t she broken into his house to find his explosives? He had them, Hatem had said so. Why couldn’t Mumtaz Hakim just go in there and find them? She put the computer on and while it booted up she thought about how she’d never understand this country she’d come to so many years ago.
