Grazia Book Club: She Lies In Wait By Gytha Lodge
She Lies In Wait By Gytha Lodge:
Everyone was getting hot and irritable. Jonah’s mouth was beginning to taste like bitter, hours- old coffee. His feet were fractious, impossible to keep still. And he had the kind of energy- sapping hunger that made it hard to focus.Excitement had turned into boredom, the one reliable constant in the emotional range of every detective.‘Is there anything we can be…?’Some twenty minutes later, Linda McCullough, the scene of crime officer, stepped carefully up out of the dip and approached him.
He found it hard, momentarily, to believe that so much time had passed. A feeling that he must be Rip van Winkle, and have slept through much of his life, ran through him. Rip van Winkle must have felt this strange mixture of anger and guilt, too.McCullough turned, shielding her eyes from the sun. Another white bio- suit was leaning out of the tent to call to her.She replaced her mask and climbed carefully back to the site, disappearing into the tent.
‘So if it’s murder, it’s an old one,’ Hanson said, and Jonah was half blinded by the white of the paper as she flipped her notebook to write in it. She sounded disappointed. Unaware of the huge implications behind those numbers. ‘And a teenage girl.’
