Chapter 4“I need to have a chat with Connor. Mary, I'd like you to go with Sanjay to break the news to Keiran's family; Phil can you find Donny and take Kevin to his parent's house. Let's meet up first thing tomorrow to compare notes.”
“Will do, Sir,” Phil replied. “The old bugger's been a bit illusive today, not quite himself.”
Alex looked up and grinned. “Do you mean more, or less, grouchy than usual?”
“Definitely more, Sir. He's been a bit touchy, but that's not all. It's normal for him to be a bit untidy, but today he seems … I don't know, looking a bit uncared for. He's showing a bit more grey, his face as well as his hair, but maybe he's just run out of tint.” Phil grinned.
“Perhaps, he's just having an off day; but laughing aside, let's keep an eye on him.”
Alex left them to it
