Malcolm leaned forward, tapping his driver on the shoulder before sinking back into the soft leather of the seat. I had to admit it was luxuriously comfortable, though I found it hard to settle in as we pulled away from the side of the road and into traffic. Heading for the other side of town at a leisurely pace.
