He was tired, sore and hungry, and just so wanted to get it over with so he could leave and check on the girls. Just as he sighed for what must have been the hundredth time in that room the door finally opened to reveal a man who sat down on the chair in front of him - dropping a file onto the table. Lockwood recognised him as Inspector Barnes.

Inspector Barnes leaned back in the chair, allowing Lockwood his 'moment'. "You may not be aware, but we were given an entirely misleading account of the situation on the premises."
