Thereby hangs a tail

The Editor of The Goss knew Amy would have to meet with Rufus to give him the £5,000. He spoke to a senior contact at the Metropolitan Police, one whom he could trust, and agreed he would go with him to Amy and Rufus’s meeting place. Both of them would be photographed as they arrested Rufus. Another exclusive for The Goss, but he, not Amy, would be credited this time, by default.

He needed to find out where Amy was meeting Rufus... but Amy was keeping tight-lipped.

He had a ‘tail’ on her after he handed over the cash.
