A few minutes later, Harry was driving back towards Hawes, his mind chock-full of information and detail, but still none of it making any real sense.<\/p>\n<p>OceanofPDF.com Detective Constable Jen Blades would much rather have jogged the route from the Community Centre to their destination, but neither she nor Ethan were exactly dressed for it. Arriving at someone\u2019s front door sweaty and breathing heavily wasn\u2019t generally the best way to set a good example. In fact, coupled with the showing of a police ID, it could fairly send people into a panic.<\/p>\n<p>So, she had accepted that it was to be just a brisk walk across Beelah Bank, following the flagstone path from Hawes, and along up to Gayle. It\u2019s a pretty little walk, Jen thought, as she followed Ethan, his shoes clip-clopping on the stone. Each step was taken carefully, as the day was cold, and ice had stretched into thin, brittle mirrors across the path. Down to their left, Gayle Beck flowed over scalloped rocks, its edges feathered with ice. \u2018Should\u2019ve brought my camera,\u2019 Ethan said, and pointed up to where Whether Fell rested in the morning sun, wearing layers of fog like a lace petticoat.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018It\u2019s nice to just appreciate the view and not worry about capturing it with anything other than your eyes, though, isn\u2019t it?\u2019 Jen said. \u2018I sometimes wonder if we\u2019re all so concerned with taking a photo or a little video of something, that we don\u2019t appreciate the moment for what it is.\u2019 \u2018I hear you,\u2019 Ethan agreed. \u2018Went to a concert last year. Can\u2019t even remember who it was. Worst time ever. Not because the band was rubbish, but because of all the phones.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>No part of this book may be reproduced in any form or by any electronic or mechanical means, including information storage and retrieval systems, without written permission from the author, except for the use of brief quotations in a book review.

But he had no idea why he was here, or who it was that had brought him. He shivered, not just because the night was colder than that old lead mine he\u2019d been exploring a few days ago, but also because he wasn\u2019t exactly dressed for the weather.<\/p>\n<p>Hadn\u2019t even been given the chance to, either. The gun going off over his head had made it more than clear there was no time for a quick tour of his wardrobe. \u2018Move.\u2019 The voice came from a silhouette standing in front of him. The face was hidden behind a scarf, which muffled the voice and made it hard to understand. \u2018At least give me a jacket,\u2019 said Bill. \u2018There\u2019s one on the back seat of the Landy.<\/p>\n<p>You can hang it over my shoulders. Don\u2019t even have to untie my wrists.\u2019 \u2018I said, move.\u2019 Bill glanced around, had no idea where to go, what was wanted of him. \u2018Where, exactly? I don\u2019t under\u2060\u2014\u2019 The barrel of the shotgun swept out of the darkness and crashed into the side of Bill\u2019s head. Sparks burst in his brain as a sharp pain rammed its way through his skull with the violence of a spear thrust.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Move! Over there! You know exactly where! Just \u2026\u2019 The barrel came in again, but Bill managed to dodge out of the way just in time. \u2018Okay,\u2019 he said, \u2018I\u2019ll move. But what\u2019s this about? Who are you? What do you want?\u2019 Bill had so many more questions, but confusion and panic were spinning around his head, hand-in-hand with their dance partner, terror. The noise of it all was just too much to allow him to think straight.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><em>This is a short excerpt from the opening of &ldquo;&rdquo; by Unknown, quoted for review and introduction purposes.
