Hello, gorgeous girl! Basking in personal glory. Pippa’s feedback: solid treatment of the crimes, plus dark, left-field angle. Just the type of book to launch Eclipse. Phew!
Amanda Bailey
Brilliant! Well done you. Actually, I’ve got a favour to ask. Would you approach someone for me? Need to minimise my name in connection to this case. I could create a false ID but with no traceable background it would instantly ping radars.
Minnie Davis
I get it. What is it you want?
Amanda Bailey
There was a girl who briefly attended an independent school. I need to find out which school she came from.
Minnie Davis
Not on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram?
Amanda Bailey
Nothing. No social media presence at all. Probably changed her name since then. She was Rowley Wild.
Minnie Davis
Leave it with me, gorgeous!
