The Crown Rests – 4
“Didn’t her husband Peter Hallstead have underworld connections?” asked Tina.
“That’s right Sherlock and that’s the very reason why we’re off to Scotland Yard to visit the lead officer on the case, one Detective Chief Inspector Shane McCutcheon.”
Over the intercom the cabbie said “‘ere we are ladies. That’ll be 8.50 luv.” Bette gave him a ten pound note and told him to keep the change. “Much obliged to you Miss he called out as he was driving away.”
They announced themselves at the reception and were told to go through security then take the lift to the tenth floor where they would be met.
As the doors opened on the tenth floor a young man said “Ms Porter and Ms Kennard?”
“Yes.” Responded Bette.
“I’m Detective Constable Jones, if you’d like to follow me the Guv’nor, beg your pardon ma’m DCI McCutcheon is expecting you.”
“Thank you officer.”
They walked through a maze of corridors eventually stopping outside a half closed door. The young detective tapped the door lightly and entered saying “Ms Porter and Ms Kennard to see you Ma’m”
“Please Jonesie call me Guv or Boss not Ma’m”
“Yes Ma’m I mean Guv!”
“Bette come in, come in.” Whilst she was talking Shane came around her desk extending her hand in welcome. She then turned to Tina and said “Are you Bette’s new pupil?”
“Oh no, she’s not my pupil; Tina is an accomplished barrister in her own right, she’s kindly giving me some of her valuable time and legal insight today.” Said Bette looking at Tina hoping she was satisfied with the response after the earlier altercation in front of the clerks at Chambers. Tina bowed her head almost imperceptibly to show her satisfaction with Bette’s reply and a small smile played on her lips. This caused Bette to smile back at her winsomely. Bette continued “There could be a possibility in mounting an appeal in the Hallstead case. It’s been brought to my attention that a person my have revealing evidence that wasn’t disclosed at the time of the trial.”
“You are telling me you are serious about defending Peter Carey! Leave it alone if you can Bette. He’s a nasty piece of work whose influence is very wide reaching, it could be dangerous.”

I wonder does this Shane bother with a swim suit? Of course Bette is in trouble… was there ever any question about that. ;) I can’t wait for your description of Tina in her swim suit though… and please don’t forget to do the same for Bette. Your story has a bit of everything in it for us; A little intrigue, a mixture of social class and education, obnoxious men and wonderful London.

When Tina said the worst answer is a ‘no’, I was reminded of the 6th episode of . But luckily Tina’s answer is ‘yes’.Being a lawyer is a good reason why Bette doesn’t open up easily.
Ok..so…when I get to England, if I do something illegal, do you think I could get Bette and Tina to represent me?? I mean, it’s a thought…right? This story makes me smile…thanks.
