Excerpt From Chapter 1
A chance encounter in the rain
At the entrance to the tube station there was a growing
crowd. The lattice shutters were being closed while an harassed official
explained that there was a wild-cat strike. She turned away. Ahead of her lay a
nightmare journey by bus to her empty flat in Kilburn. Suddenly the cold
politics of the meeting, the gray loneliness of the street, the crowds of
uncaring strangers, filled her with a longing for warmth and intimacy. The
break from her lover, police Commander Beaumont Locke had seemed clean but had
left a jagged gap of loneliness - like an exit wound. A gap where another rainy
evening briefly played over and over again in her mind.
She stood on the edge of the pavement. Perhaps she could get
a taxi - but with a tube strike there was small chance of that! Several black
cabs beetled along, already filled. She kept her hand raised and as if by magic
she saw the amber “For Hire” light of a London taxi pulling in at her side. She
felt a movement from behind and heard an accented male voice:
“Zee ‘eelton ‘otel, Park Lane.”
She turned to see a tall rock of a man, moving past her into
the taxi. This guy was going to have to back off. She grabbed the door. Even as
she did so she saw his deep brown eyes, the dark eyebrows, one of which only
partly disguised a long scar. She could never explain - even to herself - why
in that instant she wanted to touch it and know how it had been caused. Her
heart raced with indignation and a sense of excitement she had never expected
to feel again…not since… well, just not since everything.
