ting, my parents told me that I couldn39。t. They told me that I had to study for a degree so that I would achieve a career, and not something as risky as writing. I suppose I could have studied joumalism (新聞) ,but I didn39。t want to lose interest in writing because it would be something I would do every day for work, not for pleasure. I thought that teaching looked like a pretty good promise (妥協(xié) ) , especially because of the long holidays. It was a good choice: by the time I was twentyfive,I39。d already finished two novels and had an agent. To be honest, I never meant to keep my being a crime writer a secret or anything, and my friends have always known. One of the reasons most people don39。t know is because my agent told me that my name Hazel sounded too much like a romance (浪漫) novelist for older women. She suggested Brooke Lane and I thought, Well, if you think it39。ll make me successful, okay, I39。d totally forgotten about it until I walked into school one day and saw one of my workmates reading my novel. I asked her some questions about it, and it was so clear that she had no idea that I39。d written it she even offered to lend it to me after she39。d finished! Of course, sometimes I wonder what my students would think if they knew that their teacher was going home on the weekend to write about murders and dead bodies, but I think my parents probably did me a favor: my teaching job keeps me in touch with the real world.(1)Hazel is probably .

What are you here for? I understand you had a parry last night said Logan, a police officer.Yes, said Henderson, Oh! I hope the neighbours haven39。t been plaining about the noise again. Not that I know of. said Logan. But a young girl, Fran, who came to the patty hasn39。t been home yet Fran said Henderson. Yes, she was here. She left early, as I rememberabout one o39。clock. I happened to notice what the time was when she came to say goodbye. But nobody else left until about four in the morning. Henderson looked quite relaxed. Did you know Clare? asked Logan suddenly. Oh, God! Henderson sat forward. You don39。t think ... the same thing has happened to Fran? We39。re keeping an open mind, said Logan, watching him carefully, but we39。re giving it our full attention. Well, yes. I can understand that. replied Henderson, getting fortable in the armchair again. So, repeated Logan, did you know Clare? Well, sure. I knew who she was. But we never had anything do with each other. Said Henderson, giving Logan a big smile. Who else was at your party? asked Logan. People from the university, said Henderson. Students, teachers. David? asked Grant, Logan39。s partner. Yes, David was here for a time. Henderson smiled again. But he39。s not really a party animal. He probably left early. What do you mean, probably? asked Grant. Henderson looked at Grant. Grant was sixty with thick black hair and a large moustache. His clothes, as always, looked rather old: a blue jacket and grey trousers. He did not look much of a party animal either. Well, I don39。t check when my guests arrive and leave, said Henderson. And some people just leave when they want to go home. They don39。t e and say goodbye. Anyway, sometimes I can be difficult to find. Again he looked at Logan, raised his eyebrows and gave her a big smile.
