  39. ABOUT THE AUTHOR

‘This is anonymous,’ she said. ‘My friend’s friend, Derek McLaverty, who’s staying at 2/1 3908 Pollokshaws Road, Shawlands … My um, my friend, who also wishes to remain anonymous for reasons you will see, was at the above address about a week ago and she, I mean, he, said DEREK MCLAVERTY’ (then she spelt it out) ‘was bragging about some stuff he’s got online and it was right dodgy.’ Mary was trying to sound unprofessional but needn’t have bothered as she’d forgotten how to sound otherwise. ‘So, my friend said he showed my pal these pictures on his silver MacBook that made him vomit, actually hurl, like. He said there were little children in sexual … situations. She saw it, on his laptop, and was proper shaken, so I said I had to tell, so that’s what I’m doing. Derek McLaverty’s his name. Load of stuff on his MacBook unless he’s gotten rid of it. He’s twenty-nine and lives…’

She gave the Shawlands address again and hung up.

Mary threw the mobile away and headed home, smiling, because Derek McLaverty was now the scum of the earth.

No-one would hear him roar now.

When Mary got back from the park, around 4.30 a.m., Jimmy McKinley was standing on the pavement staring up at her windows. Being doxed was a serious pain in the arse.

‘Oi!’

He started walking away, but Mary caught up with him. ‘Get the fuck away from my house.’

‘I will when you give it back to me, Mary.’ Without his Zimmer he’d lost about twenty years and gained a whole heap of sinister.

‘Give what back?’

‘You’re enjoying it, aren’t you? Isn’t it incredible watching them grow? Little V’s my favourite. Don’t you love Little V? Nice to find a kindred spirit in you, Mary, but it’s mine, and I’d like it back now.’

‘I’m calling the police.’ Mary raced to her door and eventually managed to get inside. Little V? Who was Little V? Not Vanny, please not Vanny.

Having given up thinking for several hours now, she felt comfortable being drawn along by impulses, the strongest of which was to fashion twenty flyers, using flipchart paper and an assortment of felt-tip pens.
