  **********

  The bloody scene was discovered by Mrs Marjory Jenkins who on seeing the front door open went into the house to say good morning. She walked into the kitchen asking for a cup of tea and stopped rigid for just a second as she took in the bloody scene, the body of her friend lying there with a pool of blood all around her battered head. Her blood curdling screams brought the next-door neighbours running into the house.

  Mrs Coulson was the first to enter, and the first to head for the downstairs toilet where she spewed up her breakfast. She was followed by her husband who managed to keep some sort of control over his body. He took Mrs Jenkins back to his house where he sat her down. He then returned to the Ryman house and asked his wife to tend to their neighbour while he rang the police. A police car arrived five minutes later, followed by a team of detectives shortly after them. They took in the battered body of Mrs Jenkins and swore loudly at the still body of Rob. The evidence of the empty whisky bottle and the iron bar that was in his hand told them all they needed to know, and so Rob was moved to the police station to sleep off his drunken stupor. It was after midday when he finally came around, maybe it was the pounding in his head or the sick feeling in his stomach, due to all of the whisky he had been forced to drink, but between them, he gradually came around.
