time to spare.”
    “Yes, I do have, and it’s a few hours, actually.”
    “Then would it be possible to prevail myself upon you, and introduce you to some people here in the library that I know would love to meet you? When, you are finished browsing of course.”
    “You certainly may, and I’m finished now if you like.”
    “Oh, right then, follow me.”
    I followed Justine around, like a faithful puppy, as she led me from person to person.
    When we had done the rounds of the library, which amounted to a whole six people, and I had chatted briefly with those that had asked me a question, I told Justine that if any of the people, I had met, had any further questions, I would gladly answer them. I also told her it didn’t matter how many came over at the same time, and that they could all join me at a table if they wanted to.
    I was happy this had happened, as this would surely fill in time. Therefore, I sat at a large table, near a full-length glass wall. I was still holding the book on medical procedures, so to make myself look busy, I opened it and started to browse through it.
    It didn’t take Justine long to round up her troops, bringing them over to my table. I stood as I saw them approaching. There was one woman that had just come in, and I hadn’t met, so Justine introduced her. I waved my hand in a gesture for her to sit and said, “Please.”
    “Would you like me to look up that book you were looking for, Roland?” Justine asked, giving me a huge smile. “While you’re busy, here?”
    “Yes, please.”
    “And the name of it and the author.”
    “It’s called— Katey and her Possessed Budgie — written by Brian Curtin.”
    “You wouldn’t have the ISBN by any chance?”
    “No, sorry, but here, take my card,” I offered, reaching for my wallet. “On the card is the website to my publisher. We both write for the same company, albeit different sections, but you’ll find the other section on the website, and you’ll find Brian Curtin and his books on that section.
    “Right, I’ll check for you.”
    “I haven’t heard of him. What does he write?” one of the women asked.
    “YA mainly.” Noticing a puzzled look on the woman’s face, I added, “Young Adult.” I then saw the comprehension.
    Several more people entered and came over to the table, and when there were no more empty chairs, there, they stood. By the time I concluded the session, two hours later, a small crowd had amassed. I have a sneaking suspicion that Justine may have rung some of these people.
    Before I left, I went over to Justine, and she told me that the library didn’t have a copy of the book I was looking for, and also thanked me for stopping by.
     

Chapter Five
     
     
    Back in the motel room and feeling a little worn-out, I kicked off my shoes and lay on the bed, intending only to rest for a while.
    The ringing of my mobile phone woke me. It was Jane.
    “Your editor wants you to ring him ASAP,” she told me.
    “What does he want now?” I asked.
    “I don’t know, he didn’t say, he just said it was urgent.
    “Thanks, I’ll call him, and I’m glad you rang.”
    “Why? Were you asleep? You sound a little sleepy.”
    “I was, as a matter of fact.”
    “So, if I hadn’t rang, you might have missed a hot date.”
    “Something like that.”
    “Damn, I should have left it till later and made you late.”
    I could hear her laughing. “That’d be just like you.”
    “Well, you behave yourself.”
    “No.” I’m sure she heard me chuckling.
    “Okay, well just remember what I told you before.”
    “I will, for sure. Bye.”
    “Byeeee.”
     
    I had a quick shower, dressed, and hurried to the pub. It was five minutes to six when I walked in. I quickly looked around and breathed a sigh of relief that Jenny hadn’t arrived yet. If I’m meeting someone, I always like to be there first, particularly if it’s a female, unless it is my agent, then I sometimes leave him waiting for an hour, purposely.
    I
