I was just getting to the part where the detective was going to reveal who did it when a shadow passed over my book.
I looked up out of mild annoyance when I saw them staring at the sea far below the cliff face.
"I come here to read because almost no-one else comes here." I hazarded. They turned around, tears still running down their face.
"Ever realise everything would be better if you were gone?"
"No, because that's not true. For either of us."
They blinked back a couple tears, then looked at my book.
"The maid did it."
