‘Where to, sir?’ asked PC Steve as they cruised slowly up Queen Street.
‘Hmm?’ The inspector was already immersed in Graham Kennedy’s file. ‘Oh, Kettlebray Crescent: let’s get our esteemed colleague’s opinion on the scene of the crime before we go tell Kennedy’s granny her wee boy’s dead… And the car does come with an accelerator, Constable: pedal on the floor, next to the big rectangular one. Try and use it, or we’ll be here till bloody Christmas.’
Fourteen Kettlebray Crescent was a mess. Vacant windows stared out at the street, surrounded by dark streaks of soot. The roof was gone, collapsed in on itself as the flames raged through the building. Now faint, rainy daylight filtered into the house’s shabby interior. The buildings on either side hadn’t fared too badly; the fire brigade had arrived quickly enough to save them. But not the six people who’d been in number fourteen. Insch grabbed an umbrella from the boot and marched off into the fire-ravaged house, leaving Logan and PC Steve to scurry along behind getting wet. A mobile incident room was abandoned outside the building: a cross between a Portakabin and a caravan, only without the windows. The standard black-and-white checked ribbon ran around the outside, with the SEMPER VIGILO thistle logo in the middle. Like a bow on a grubby, unwanted Christmas present.
