The Shadow Of The Sycamores (2014) - Plot & Excerpts
Despite talking about it for hours the night before, what had happened was too momentous to be pushed to the back of their minds. ‘What?’ ‘What’ll Innes Ledingham do when he finds out Janet’s not there?’ ‘I suppose he’ll start looking for her.’ ‘And he knows how close she was to me so he’s bound to come here first.’ ‘Oh,’ Fay gasped, ‘that’s right. What’ll we do?’ ‘We can’t ask anybody else to take her; we don’t want other people knowing. In any case, it’s up to us to look after her, seeing Max brought her here.’ ‘I hope he doesn’t lose his job because of it.’ ‘Losing his job would be the least of it, my Fairy. Ledingham could report him to the police for abducting her.’ ‘He surely wouldn’t do that?’ ‘I wouldn’t put it past him – he’s devious enough for anything.’ They looked at each, realising that they might be in just as much trouble as Max Dalgarno. ‘I’d better go down to see how she is,’ Fay said at last, ‘and you should try to think of something we can do.’ Henry could think of nothing else.
