The place was empty. Deserted even.

Then I saw someone move behind the clouded glass of the inspectors office, I walked round the corner to see the majority of the constables from station 4 sat round a large table including the inspector and George.
The inspector had his head in his hands and there was a heavy solemn mood lingering in the air. In the middle of the table was a newspaper. Just then George stood up and said nothing, which made the inspector look up and clock me stood there in the middle of the room. George picked up the newspaper and threw it towards me. Then I heard the inspector speak before I had time to look at it.

'I would like to apologise for my actions yesterday. I shouldn't have shouted. It wasn't your fault and you didn't know.' He said solemnly

it was strange to hear something heartfelt from the inspector and when he finished he looked almost torn with grief...what had happened here..?

'You might want to sit down before you read that' George said quietly in my direction.

But I didn't listen I was unfolding the newspaper. And nothing would have quite prepared me for what I read on that first page.

'PRIZED DETECTIVE FOUND DEAD IN RIVER, SUSPECTED SUICIDE...'

After I read those words...lots of things happened quickly all at once. I heard something hit the floor, all the police officers suddenly ran from their chairs towards me. I didn't even realise I wad falling until I hit the ground the newspaper falling from my hand limply...

Then everything went black...
