TEXT MESSAGE HISTORY BETWEEN JAMES MORIARTY AND DOROTHY INGRAM

Dorothy Ingram, as I live and breathe, how's life as a repressed do-gooder?

Who is this? How did you get this number?

This is James Moriarty, from Nevermore Bookshop. All you need to know is that I have my methods.

I thought it was time we had a chat about the chair covers.

I don't know what you're talking about.

You've been very naughty, haven't you? Usually, I like naughty women, but in this case, you're attempting to ruin my wedding. I suggest you stop immediately.

Stop the prayer circle? Never. You cannot silence the word of God.

You ripped up the chair covers and left Mina a threatening note.

No.

Not me.

I couldn't have done that. I've been in Grimdale looking after my sister Megan. She had a nasty fall. Ask anyone in the village. They'll be able to tell you. I've been there practically 24/7.

A likely story.

Contact me again and I'll report you to the police.

Will you? Would you like everyone to know all about your dirty little secret?

I don't know what you're talking about.

Yes, you do. Come on, Dorothy. You're a religious nutter, but you're not stupid. Remember a little visit you made to a certain hospital, for a certain procedure…

You don't know anything.

Play coy if you like. You can have your little prayer circle and pray for our lost, corrupted souls. But stay away from our wedding and no one has to know your secret.
