”Wait in the hall. I’ll call Keats. He’ll sort it out.” He picked up the phone and waited for them to troop out and close the door before he put in his call...
It was an uncomfortable ninety minute wait until they had a response. The hall had but one chair between four of them, and no-one appeared with any refreshments while they waited. Eventually, the front door opened and Trooper Dan de Vries looked in. He glanced across at Alex. ”The Captain says he’s sorted a warrant. It took more than a few calls and he got some grief about jurisdiction so he wasn’t happy but he said to head up to Amesbury and someone will meet you there.”
