The Careless Word (#8 - The Craig Crime Series) - Plot & Excerpts
1 p.m. John was in his outer office arranging his newly reinstated cabinets when Craig arrived, and from the prints and paintings leaning against the wall Craig knew what his next task was going to be. He stood in the doorway and considered his best friend for a moment. John looked happy, happier than Craig had seen him in… well, ever really. John had been a solitary only child when they’d met at grammar school; small and thin for his age and wearing glasses. He hadn’t exactly been bullied but he’d spent every lunchtime alone, reading a book or working on experiments in the lab. Everyone had thought he was doing it to suck up to the teachers but the years had proved them very wrong. What had started as childhood curiosity had become John’s way of life. Craig had been curious about the quiet boy from the start. He was an uber-fit jock who played every sport at school and most of them to Captaincy. But he was something else as well; he’d been raised by educated parents and his grades were always good.
