Sudden Death (2014)
“It was a large mock Tudor mansion, at least seven bedrooms, thought Erasmus as he smoked a cigarette that made him feel sicker than he already was.
He leant back against one of the gateposts as a wave of dizziness passed through. Once the worst of it had subsided Erasmus walked up the long gravel drive way and rang the doorbell.
Judging by Tallow’s age and career choice, Erasmus had been relying on traditional gender roles to be operating in the Tallow household and on a Thursday afternoon he had expected Mrs Tallow, if there was a Mrs Tallow, to answer the door. He was therefore a little surprised when the door swung open to reveal Frank Tallow himself.
He was dressed casually, jeans and a sweater. He looked older than his fifty years, but yet still had a full head of hair, although Erasmus noticed straight away that the brown colouring was clearly an expensive salon addition. Most surprising of all was that Frank Tallow was wearing a pair of aviator sunglasses inside the house.
‘Yea...h, who are you?’ asked Tallow.MoreLess
