            Anne beckoned Fred closer and in almost a whisper she answered, ‘If this turns out to be the

            ‘Does that include Bryant?’

            ‘Specifically Bryant and specifically you.’


            ‘OK. However, tread carefully. I don’t like him or trust him.’ He pointed upstairs.

            ‘You’re not alone’ she answered. ‘but I have to trust his boss.’
