Chapter 56

She didn’t bother to wait and see what the fuss was about; her boss would be going crazy. She skipped out onto the street, skirted around the badly parked police cars, and speed walked towards the tube train station, ignoring her aching feet.

“For fuck’s sake.” He threw a punch at the door with such force it threw him back across the room. Blood seeped from his knuckles. The pain made him feel alive.
