Oh dear! This was even smaller than he thought. Dick had expected women's fitting rooms to be a little bigger than this considering how much time women spent in them and the amount of clothes they usually brought in with them.
Sitting down was out of the question of course no matter that the woman didn't seem to mind the contact. He leaned against the wall.
"Well, as I already mentioned, I'm investigating a murder," Dick explained. "The man was killed yesterday shortly after leaving your shop. We believe that another customer was the last person to see him alive. I am here to try and track her down." He paused to judge Katie's reaction hoping that she wasn't about to have a nervous breakdown. She still seemed quite calm and he'd managed to avoid any mention of blood, gore or names,but he worried that it all might get too real for her once she began to associate the story with individual customers.
