‘Thank you very much, sir.’ He turned in surprise. She had combed her hair and put fresh make-up on, showing no sign of what had taken place just minutes before. He watched her move from one member of the team to another, sipping her wine and smiling, until she came to stand beside him.
‘How’s your knee, sir?’
‘Aching.’
‘Like my heart. But I want you to know that I will take on board everything we discussed. I promise. Goodnight.’
For the second time he watched her leaving. The double doors swung closed behind her. His admiration for the way she handled herself went up another notch. DCI Anna Travis was a class act.
