Book - A Shot in the Dark - 59

Part no. 59

This summary was deliberately written in the present tense, therefore analyse it as if it’s taking place as you read it.

The interview with Sergeant Brunswick has unsettled Penny. She’s afraid that she may have unconsciously said something that could put Bobby and her into trouble. She heads over to the hotel where Bobby is staying. When she enters his room, she immediately explains what has happened, without failing to stress that the police were in particular interested in Bobby. Much to Penny’s astonishment, Bobby demands to know exactly what the Police asked. The thought that Bobby might be involved in Jack’s murder has been nagging Penny for days. She can’t help but voice it now. He denies it with astounding coldness. Penny feels completely overwhelmed by the whole situation. She pours out all of her worries to Bobby, but he merely stares back at her emontionless. She pleads him to explain how he came to have a first hand knowledge of the crime scene. Bobby tries to talk his way out, but in the end emotions get the better of him. He admits to being a con artist and that he was with Jack on the night of the murder. However, Bobby stands by his earlier point: he didn’t kill Jack.
