Chapter 30

“Most likely. Anyway, we’ll be in the office around eight o’clock tomorrow morning for a brief conference before we go to the police station and set things in motion.”

“I’ll see you then. Give my regards to Philip.”

“I will. By the way, I forgot to ask Richard if there had been anything new in the papers about the murder or, for that matter, the issuance of a warrant.”

“No. There’s been absolutely no mention of new developments in the case in any of the media, as far as I can tell. My guess is that they’re waiting to make the arrest, then they’ll make the most of it with the press.”
