‘That makes me, you and Felix,’ Scott chuckles. ‘Remind me why we’re chasing this woman all over town?’ ‘Because we offered,’ I reply through a smile. To say we’re chasing Anita Van der Boom across town is a slight exaggeration. We went to her cottage on Hope Island where one of her neighbours told us she’d already be propping up the bar at The Hopeful Ghost, a pub over on the mainland.

LoL maybe her name should be Anita Van der Broom, as the story progresses, the altered spelling becomes more apt. Although if she regularly props up the bar in the pub maybe Van der Beer would be better.
