    Summary

    “If you're looking for the paper, I threw it out. Nothing in there seemed important," Lockwood says. He had been doing this ever since she told him that she was leaving, and it was making it that much harder to find a place she could rent. She had been pounding the pavement, making calls, and had taken to nicking the paper from neighbors and cafes just to review the listings of available flats.

    “You bloody well know I could have used that,” she says, turning to him, arms crossed, fuming.

    He observes her, eyes hard. “Your ad showed up on page six today,” he finally says, “'Lucy Carlyle: consultant psychic investigation agent. Aural phenomena a specialty.’” His voice is flat. “Like I said, nothing important in the paper today.” He stands, giving her a wide berth as he walks past her, without looking back.

    Lockwood tries to convince Lucy to stay. It doesn't go well.

    Book spoilers, most notably for The Hollow Boy and The Creeping Shadow.

    Summary

    “Mary was always the shortest of us,” I said. “We would keep track of our heights with a chart on the wall. Then I left home, and…”
    “What?”
    I looked at him. “I guess we stopped growing together.”

    Lucy gets a letter from home.

    Summary

    He chewed on his bottom lip. “I’ve got a question for you. How would you like a job with Lockwood and Co.?”

    Her eyes widened, her gaze meeting his. “With you and - and Holly and George?”

    He nodded. “We need a strong Listener. And you certainly fit the bill. You’d be working for me, not Penelope Fittes. We’re a small team, but a strong one.”

    She sank her teeth into her lower lip, before saying, “All right. I accept.”

    He grinned and offered her his hand once more. She took it. “We have a deal. I’m looking forward to working with you, Miss Carlyle.”
