Lillian was sick and tired of her life. The drudgery, the scrimping, and Walter's pathetic ways. She longed for some sophistication; for nice dresses, and for cocktails at Quaglino's. She had been looking for an excuse for whatever it was she felt she might just do, and discovering her husband's deceit with Evelyn was just the thing.
Dennis has woken from another one of his episodes, but this time something was different. Since the crack on the head he'd had whilst in action, he always suffered blanks when he had drunk too much, and he had definitely been drinking gin with Nesta in The Feathers. As the memories come back to him in fractured pieces, he realises that Nesta has made away with all of his money. His plea for help leads DDI Cooper to the devastating and heart rending conclusion of the case.
A Commonplace Killing by Sian Busby is abridged by Lauris Morgan Griffiths.
