  DS Toolan : I had no option but to let him go, Jack, believe me.

  Insp Jack Frost : No, I know; neither did I. But he has forgotten one or two little things.

  DS Toolan : Hm?

  Insp Jack Frost : Well... coroner's inquiry, they'll tear him apart, won't they. Limb from limb.

  DS Toolan : Who?

  Insp Jack Frost : Well, the press; who else? And even if they don't, they will after they receive a copy of this.

  James Callum : [on recorder]  No witnesses. The perfect confessional.

  Insp Jack Frost : Sent anonymously, of course.
