CHAPTER TWO
A visit to Jimmy Brown

'We were lucky to catch Campbell for Craig Sinclair's murder,' said Grant, as he and Logan walked down the hill towards her car.

'Did you work on the murder?' asked Logan.

'Yes, but before you ask, I didn't speak to Morag Mackenzie then and I don't know if that's her up there,' said Grant, pointing back up the hillside with his thumb. 'At first we didn't have any idea at all who'd killed Sinclair. Then someone rang the London Road police station, didn't leave a name, but said we should search Campbell's flat.'

'And what was there?' asked Logan.

'There was a gun in a metal box in his kitchen. It was the gun which had killed Sinclair. Campbell's fingerprints were all over the box.'

'What about the gun?'

'None. No fingerprints on the gun,' said Grant. 'He'd probably cleaned it. Anyway, they were still questioning him when Morag Mackenzie came into the police station. I wasn't there at the time. She said she'd seen Campbell and Sinclair drinking together and shouting at each other on the night that Sinclair died. The two of them had been in that pub at the end of Rose Street, the Abbotsford Arms.'

'What did Campbell have to say?' asked Logan.

'Well, he said the box was his but he'd never seen the gun. He also said he'd never been in the Abbotsford Arms in his life. He said he didn't know Sinclair very well at all so why would he kill him?'

'But you were sure you had the right person,' said Logan.
