Tam put his hand on Jenny Logan's, looked into
her eyes and gave her a big smile.
'I'm a very kind man, you know, Jenny Logan.'
Then his voice changed and he said quickly, 'So
tell me, was it murder? And if so, who did it?'
Logan laughed. Tam's hand felt warm and nice,
but she took hers away. Slowly.
'I don't know who did it, Tam,' she said. 'But it
was murder. And you can put that in the paper, if
you want.'
'Well, well, well. So it was murder then,' said
Tam. 'Thanks, Jenny.'
'Yes,' said Logan. 'And you are such a kind man
that when I know who did it, I'll tell you first.'
Tam smiled at her.
