Towse nodded. “I was advised you’d say that as well, Miss. It appears the sender knows you well.”
“Really?”
“Really and, Miss, it behooves you to do as you’re asked, I reckon. I’ve to say you have thirty minutes. The sender also mentioned they felt it best to take you by surprise, so you’d have less time to formulate an excuse.”

Biography
A multi-published author of erotic romance, Raven lives in Scotland, along with her husband and their two cats—their children having flown the nest—surrounded by beautiful scenery, which inspires a lot of the settings in her books.
She is used to sharing her life with the occasional deer, red squirrel, and lost tourist, to say nothing of the scourge of Scotland—the midge. As once she is writing she is oblivious to everything else, her lovely long-suffering husband is learning to love the dust bunnies, work the Aga, and be on stand-by with a glass of wine.
