Chapter 15: Cork

"Then she'll read it first," I said. "I made sure of that much."

Cecily smiled into her ring binder and didn't look up again.

"Ottoline said you'd be in there," he said. "How'd it go?"

"Two of them resigned from the flowers."

"Petra signs tomorrow night."

"I know." He looked at me over the sandwich. "Can you stop her by sitting outside the house in a car?"

"No."

"Then you've told her. The rest is hers." He shook the bag. "And my mother's been asking for a fortnight."

The pub stood on a corner in Cork city with a red front and gold letters, exactly like the photo on his desk.
