When Diana joined Randy where he stood studying the graffiti on one of the walls, he quickly wrapped his arms around her and kissed her forehead.“Am I glad to see you,” he murmured.

“What’s happened?”

Randy lifted a shoulder.“Bats,” he replied.“They caused a bit of a stir up here.”

She nodded.“Yes,” she replied.“One did the same down in the crypts, but it was Mahmood who frightened us even more,” she added, grinning.She opened the satchel hanging from his shoulder and stuffed her torch inside.“Then my torch went out halfway up the stairs.I thought your cousin was going to suffer apoplexy.”

His eyes rounded before he suddenly barked a laugh.“Let me guess.David’s went out first?”

She nodded as the two made their way to the exit.They paused to allow Tom and Helen to proceed them, his brother having offered his arm to Helen for the walk back to the hantours.

The two glanced at one another and grinned conspiratorially.
