Sample text:

Excerpt from  Chapter 6:

After she had put Trudi to bed later that evening she sorted clothes for the washing machine, and was surprised to retrieve the memory stick still lodged in the top pocket of her dirty overall.  She held it up to show her husband, standing at the other end of the kitchen.

            “Look what I found today in the men’s toilets.  I forgot all about it until just now.”

            “A memory stick?”

            “Yeah; I don’t know who it belongs to though.”

            “Pop it in the computer and have a look.  You never know, it might hold the secret formula to the elixir of youth, and I’ll get the scoop of the century.  I’m fed up of writing about old ladies’ cats stuck up trees and school concerts.”  Larry chuckled and walked towards her.

            “I can’t; that’ll be snooping; I’ll just give it to one of the Misters. It’s somebody’s private property.”

            “Well, you won’t know who it belongs to until you have a look will you?  Give it to me; I’m a journalist and snooping’s my business.”  He took the memory stick from her outstretched hand.
