motion to turn around. He cannot turn around.
The fear and shivering stop. Richard moved to the door. He moved door handle to open door. The door did not open.
Richard knocked on door.
Greta, answered, speaking as Greta, "Who is knocking?"
Richard stood a while; did not know if he should reply to the unrecognized voice.
Richard, "It's Richard. Who are you?"
Greta, "Richard isn't here."
Richard, " I'm Richard. Open this door. Right now."
Greta, "Go away. Richard."
Richard, "Open this door right now. This is my house."
Greta, "This is my house."
Richard, Is that you Liz?"
Greta, "Liz is in the ambulance."
Richard, "How do you know something like that?"
Greta, "I'm Greta. You taught me how to know something like that."
Richard, "Greta."
Greta, "Greta in the house . In the book. The house you burnt down. You left us there. Go away Richard."
Richard's frightened shivers returned. Sweat came from his head and arms. His body was shaking.
In his panic, he rushed to car, and hurried down the crooked lane.
He reached the gate and sped away.
Richard never returned to Greta's house.
Greta walked to her study, sat in her chair, and began typing on her keyboard. Lang and Sally now alive; slid out of book. Walked to Greta and stood each on one side.
One year later-the mystery book was a best seller.
Greta placed the new best-selling mystery story ever on the top shelf'.
The cover read "The Greatest Mystery Story Ever Told-Coauthor by Greta, Lang, and Sally."
