This is the space to tell us how you would answer the writing prompt that appears in CrimeBits on page 29.
He should have known.
There should have been a sign.
A way of seeing what was about to happen.
He should have felt it.
It wouldn’t have helped him.
The clock was ticking, the minutes and seconds passing by, without him realising.
He would be dead in an hour and he wouldn’t see it coming.

The next thing he had to do was move quickly. They would be back before too long, but for now the house was empty and he was tied to a chair in the middle of the loungeroom. If he could hop over to the kitchen and open the cupboards somehow he would have a knife, or maybe he could try a move that is probably only realistic in films. Swaying the chair back and forward until in broke. Either way he needed to act now.
