      ‘Jay!’

      He narrowed his eyes against the slanting sun and cursed softly under his breath. ‘Hello, Mike.’

      ‘I didn’t realise you were home.’ A man, a little above average in height and with soft brown hair, hurried across the square towards them. He glanced in the car at Kate and then, pointedly, at Jay.

      Jay performed perfunctory introductions. ‘Kate Thornley, Mike Howard.’

      Mike offered Kate his hand through the window. ‘Hello, Kate,’ he said warmly, his eyes riveted on her face.

      She took the proffered hand and found it held firmly. ‘Hello, Mike,’ she said and swallowed a smile as a warning shadow crossed Jay Warwick’s face.

      ‘It will be advertised.’ He made an impatient move and Mike Howard reluctantly surrendered Kate’s hand.

      ‘I’d better let you get on, then. I’m sure you’ve a lot to do. I’ll see you again soon, Kate.’

      She smiled rather more warmly than she might normally have done as he waved and walked away across the square.

      ‘He’s the estate agent for the National Trust in this area,’ Jay told her, as he climbed into the driving seat. ‘In case you wanted to make a note.’ There was something about the way he said it that made her look up.

      ‘I might,’ she said.
