Luhmuhlen and Lexington were located up beyond the fork of the driveway, but the third, Burghley House, was right beside the main school. It was a single level residence, built out of the same red brick as the school buildings and surrounded by magnolia bushes. At the front of the house there was a games room with a pool table and French doors leading out on to the lawn. Behind this room was the prefect’s study and this was where Damien Danforth found Conrad Miller on Saturday afternoon. “What do you want, Danforth?” Conrad snapped when the boy stuck his head around the door. “There’s a girl at the games room looking for you,” Danforth said. “Kennedy?” Conrad sighed. “What does she want now?” “Not Kennedy,” Damien replied. “It’s Georgie Parker.” Georgie had felt totally embarrassed turning up at Burghley House and asking for Conrad. She knew that just being seen here by boys like Damien would get tongues wagging. This was James Kirkwood’s boarding house – and she was desperately worried that she would run into Kennedy’s brother too.
