The Second Page #5

"We were floating around

on the pontoon.

"I remember him

diving into the water.

"But he never came up for air."

"He just vanished."

Why isn't there a statement

from your friend?

- Because they believed me.

- I don't believe you.

You're gonna need more evidence

than that.

I know you killed him.

I know it.

But what I can't understand

is why you would

write a book about it.

Mack Barton, the real boy.

15 years old. Brother to Angus,

son to Keith and Judy.

You have the power

to give the family closure.

Did you kill Mack Barton?

You charge me

or you let me go.

It's for her, isn't it?

The book?

Oh, congratulations - you've

read the dedication. Well done.

I'm actually talking to

the wrong person.

I should be talking to her.

If you see your friend, tell her

that I'd like to speak to her.

Yeah, if I see her.

He read your book.

Made a complaint.

"Your DNA, her bruises -

just enough for the police

"to buy you as

a violent sexual predator.

"Now you know how it ends.

I hope you're not disappointed.

"It's not exactly

an 'up' ending."

But, of course,

that's not how it ends.

You'll have to buy the book.

- Thank you.

- Thank you.

She loves an audience.

Do you know her?

Yeah, we know each other.

- Hey.

- Hey.

- You were spectacular.

- Aww.

- Thank you.

- Cheers.

- Cheers.

Can you sign this for me,

please?

Of course.

What would you like me to write?
