The doorbell rings. It’s a policeman. “Miss Parker, I’m afraid I don’t have very good news for you,” the officer said. “Your friend Matt Edwards has just been in an accident. I believe he was on his way here tonight. He’s dead.” Jemma can’t believe it as she gapes at the living room chair in which he used to sit. It was as if she killed him! In the middle of the night she wakes up. The phone is ringing. “Jem, I’ll be there,” the voice says. It sounds like Matt. Is this a nightmare? He’s supposed to be dead!
