when they got outside,logan and grant walked round to alice maclennan is house in polwarth gardens.
alice maclennan opened the door.
"well"? she asked in a quiet and rather sad voice.
'It was Ian Ross,'said logan. 'Some officers are taking him to the london road police station right now.'
alice maclennan put her hand up to her mouth.
'oh no! Ian,'she said.'how terrible! are you sure?'
'yes. he is told us everything. well,almost everything.
alice maclennan looked at logan strangely.'almost everything? what do you mean, Inspector?' she asked.
'well,there is one thing he did not tell us. he did not tell us how long you and he were loves. I was hoping you could tell us that.'
'Come in, Inspector,' said alice maclennan. 'Let is talk inside. it is warmer.
they went into alice maclennan is living room and sat down.
'what I told you before was true. alew and i were happily married until he started the restaurant, 'began alice maclennan. 'I told you we had some problem then but ... I couldn't tell you ...' alice maclennan began to cry quietly.
