And because it was essential to me that she should know the truth, I decided to give myself
up. Before they brought me to trial I would have time to write down my story just as it had
happened, and if the verdict went against me, Ginny would at least have my written record.
Having made the decision, I got cautiously to my feet. I looked back along the ledge. A
policeman was leaning out of a window about twenty yards away from me. Reluctantly, his
eyes popping and his face shiny with sweat, he swung his leg over the window-sill.
“Stay where you are,” I said, waving him back, “I’m coming in.”
As I walked towards him, moving slowly, steadying myself against the side of the building
and keeping my eyes fixed on him, I heard the deep-throated roar from the crowd below. It
reminded me of the noise the lions had made when I had dropped Reisner into the pit. At least
he hadn’t known what was coming to him.
I did.
THE END
