Ring of Guilt (2012)
“After all, he hardly ever left Bossingham Hall unless I took him – before I’d come on the scene he’d had to make occasional excursions by taxi, but the track to his wing was now so bad most companies refused to risk their cars’ suspension. But there was always the remote chance that I might find Titus Oates there, which would embarrass us all. At the moment I only suspected my father was deep into forgeries for Titus; the least hard evidence and they both knew I’d never visit the Hall again. Ti...tus even suspected, I think, I might break our unwritten agreement never to mention him to the policemen I knew. I don’t think I’d have shopped him, not unless I had proof positive that he was leading my father astray. But my father was more than willing to make a dishonest buck, so I couldn’t have dropped one in it without the other.
Armed truce, then.
When my father suggested I might come via a supermarket – he usually left such ideas to me – I smelt a rat. Was the delay to give Titus plenty of time to get clear?MoreLess
