The door was slightly ajar so I walked directly in <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anina was standing at the window in her underwear <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What are you doing here Detective Jon <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The door was ajar <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do you get your kicks by looking at your suspects in their underwear <\/p>\n\n\n\n

No<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Are you are enjoying it <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I assure you that I am not <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Liar <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To tell the truth I find you rather repulsive <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Viola passed the torn page to me <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was removed from a book <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Obviously <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A cheap paperback<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It looks that way <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What are you first thoughts Detective Jon <\/p>\n\n\n\n

That our main suspect is quite vain <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because she wears expensive underwear <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I take it that is the same Anina Nina <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Very much <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why would this overweight woman wear expensive underwear <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because it is her secret <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Detective Jon may I ask you a question<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just call me Jon <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How did you become aware of her underwear <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because that was all she was wearing when I paid her all call <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Was she trying to seduce you <\/p>\n\n\n\n

No <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because I told her that I found her rather repulsive <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Always one for the ladies Jon you have not changed <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Viola <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although we have been partners for many years <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is something mysterious about you <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Are you referring to my underwear Jon <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course not <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I just wear sensible undies from Marks and Spencer <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I own a dog <\/p>\n\n\n\n

That is nice for you <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is its name <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rex <\/p>\n\n\n\n

That is a nice name <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I like it <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is your question <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is not really a question <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Go ahead <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As you know I am an early riser <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We all are it is the stress of the job <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I sometimes walk the dog <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many people do before work <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Usually I take a familiar route but this morning I decided to avoid the roadworks and use the coastal path <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I do like the sea views from the coastal path <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was there that I found a memorial bench nearly opposite your old house <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes there are many <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was the inscription that interested me <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why was that <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It read Viola and Jaclyn Reunited at Las<\/em>t <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The data was recorded as 02\/02\/22<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The day you went missing <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What a coincidence a girl with the same name as me passing away on the same day as I vanished <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Viola who was Jaclyn <\/p>\n\n\n\n

She was a dear school friend of mine <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do you still keep in touch <\/p>\n\n\n\n

No <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because she died in a boating accident when she was thirteen <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You faked your own death then <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because I wanted to see Jaclyn <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Either that or I have a bizarre hobby <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is getting us nowhere Detective Jon <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jon please Jon <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What do you think Stan<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It has great possibilities Jane <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I cannot wait for the final denouement <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was call this chapter <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Untying of Knots <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I think that this is only a novella <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nothing else <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It will not be a slab of a story <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jane did you base Detective Jon on me <\/p>\n\n\n\n
