men seeking a career in the army than him,” Samuel said.
     
    Major Anderson nodded and remained quiet as he picked up his glass to take a sip of his whisky. He seemed to take a few seconds just to enjoy the taste, and when he started talking again the change of subject came as a surprise to Samuel.
     
    “I have a message for you,” he said. “Your wife got in touch around thirty minutes ago and asked if you could contact her.”
     
    The frown creased Samuel’s brow at the news. Considering he would be home that evening, his wife would only call him at the base if it was something important. The worry lit up in his mind and he was unable to conceal his sudden edginess.
     
    “I guess I better make the call then,” he said then tipped his glass up to empty it in one gulp. “Is there anything else you need from me at the moment?”
     
    “No,” Major Anderson replied.
     
    “Thanks for the whisky,” Samuel went on and put the shot glass down on the desk.
     
    He got to his feet and made a quick salute before turning to walk to the door of the office. Once he was out in the hallway, he got his phone from his pocket and switched it on. He decided to wait until he was somewhere more private to make the call and walked in the direction of the base parking lot. It was only when he was sitting in his car that he brought his home number up on the screen and made the call.
     
    “Hi Kath,” he said when his wife answered the call. “Is there a problem?”
     
    “I’m not sure,” she replied. “But thought I better tell you straight away.”
     
    “Tell me what?” Samuel asked.
     
    “A letter came to the house for Carrie today, so I asked Bella to let her know when she spoke to her.”
     
    Samuel couldn’t stop the sigh coming out at the mention of Carrie’s name.
     
    “And?” he queried.
     
    “Well, Bella called the college early this evening,” Kath went on. “She was told that Carrie wasn’t there.”
     
    “WHAT!” Samuel exclaimed as his annoyance erupted. “What do you mean she isn’t there? If she’s not at college, where the hell is she?”
     
    “Apparently with us,” Kath said. “Bella was put through to Carrie’s student counselor and he asked how you were.”
     
    “Huh?” Samuel let out. “Why would he ask how I was?”
     
    “Because Carrie told him that you weren’t well and that she was needed to help out with the family business for a couple of weeks.”
     
    “What the hell,” Samuel let out. “What is she playing at?”
     
    “I don’t know,” Kath replied. “But she’s obviously made up a story to get herself a couple of weeks away from college.”
     
    “Why does she want a couple of weeks away from college?” Samuel asked.
     
    “That’s the million dollar question,” Kath answered.
     
    Samuel let out another sigh. His youngest daughter had been difficult since she became a teenager, but finally seemed to be settling down to some normality when she made the decision to attend the English course at college. He’d hoped it would be the end of the difficult years, but he guessed not.
     
    “What do we do?” Kath asked.
     
    Samuel considered the question for a few seconds before speaking.
     
    “Did Bella find out anything else?”
     
    “No,” Kath asked. “She didn’t want to say something that would land her sister in trouble, so she got out of the conversation with the counselor as quickly as she could. All she knows is that Carrie used the excuse of you being ill and out of action for a couple of weeks to get out of college.”
     
    “What the hell is that girl doing?” Samuel let out and shook his head as his annoyance grew stronger. “Bella’s been to visit her at the college, so see if she has contact details for any of Carrie’s friends there.”
     
    “Sure, I’ll do that,” Kath agreed.
     
    “I’m just about to leave the base right now,” Samuel went on. “I’ll be home in around thirty minutes or so.”
     
    “I’ll see
