And then there was one (part thirty-seven)

The light was blinding and he could hear muffled sounds and voices, but there was no blood. He was grateful that the blood seemed to have gone. That had really freaked him out. Now all he needed to do was listen and he would surely find her this time. There seemed to be a problem though. He was... Sign in to see full entry.

And then there was one (part thirty-six)

Joanne was led back into the room after twenty more minutes and she looked as though she had been crying. “What’s wrong Jo?” Mark asked. “They went on at me as if I knew something more than I was telling them.” She sobbed. “Why were they like that to you? The sergeant just listened and said... Sign in to see full entry.

And then there was one (part thirty-five)

Mark and Joanne sat alone in the room for almost thirty minutes neither of them knowing what to say to the other. The room was eerily quiet with just the sound of their breathing to keep them company. Mark turned to Joanne and was just about to speak when the door opened and the policewoman walked...

And then there was one (part thirty-four)

The police station was fairly crowded when they walked in. There was a lot of noise and shouting with the police having to shout louder than everyone else to make them heard. Picked a great time to come here to sort this out. Mark thought looking around. If there was one thing he really didn’t want... Sign in to see full entry.

And then there was one (part thirty-three)

The two of them decided to walk to the police station. It would give them time to try and decide how they were going to explain the situation, without sounding like two complete oddballs. Mark was carrying the bag with all the papers in. He just hoped that the police would be sympathetic and... Sign in to see full entry.

And then there was one (part thirty-two)

Joanne went into the kitchen, leaving Mark with all the papers, and prepared some toast and coffee for them. They had both decided that all they could do to start with was go to the police and see what they could do. Maybe if they found the couple they would also find Jackie/Monica, Mark didn’t even...

And then there was one (part thirty-one)

Mark was too shocked to say anything. He just sat staring at Joanne, unsure whether she was telling the truth or another piece of an elaborate game designed to send him completely insane. He just didn’t have a clue as to why people would want to do this to him. “You can’t expect me to believe Jackie... Sign in to see full entry.

And then there was one (part thirty)

Thirty minutes later, and all cleaned up, Mark and Joanne were sat in the front room with a cup of coffee. The pain in Mark’s head had subsided enough for him to think straight again, even though what he was hearing was more convoluted than anything he had ever heard before. The main problem going...

And then there was one (part twenty-nine)

Mark’s head started to spin and the pain started to return. Who the hell are they if they aren’t who they have always said they are? Who am I really married to? What was Jackie’s father hiding? Surely he wasn’t a killer, was he? All these new questions were pushing Mark’s, already fragile, mind over... Sign in to see full entry.

And then there was one (part twenty-eight)

Joanne stood up and walked over to the window. She wasn’t quick enough for Mark though because he had seen the beginnings of tears forming in her eyes. “Joanne are you okay?” Mark asked. “Just give me a minute Mark please let me get us another coffee.” Joanne replied. “Let me help you.” “No Mark...
