The Case Of The Disappearing Corpse (2013) - Plot & Excerpts
I called, letting the screen door slam behind me. “You were lucky. The person who borrowed it only returned the book an hour before I got there.” “We’re in the kitchen baking cakes.” Ken’s voice was followed by a muffled giggle from Mum. As I poked my head through the kitchen doorway I rolled my eyes. “Geez, do you two lovebirds ever stop?” I asked in mock disapproval. By the flush on Ken’s face and the way Mum was grinning at him they’d been kissing over the cake-mixture. I was happy for Mum. She deserved a good guy like Ken in her life after losing Dad to a heart-attack six years ago then bringing me up single handed. This guy made her laugh and since he’d come into her life she looked years younger. But that didn’t make it any easier to put up with Ken’s daughter. If only Sarah wasn’t such a pain in the body-part you sit on. What about the sneaky way she found my diary? In my room…inside my wardrobe…under a pile of old tee-shirts…wrapped in a nightdress I used to wear when I was five.
