We Are Death (40 page)

This one showed the Fool, dancing serenely with a flute and a happy skip in his feet. He held a cane in his right hand, which he rested on his shoulder, with a bundle tied to its end. In the corner of the card, the sun was shining, in the distance the green hills.

‘Aw, crap,’ muttered Haynes.

There was no depiction of death; there was no mockery. Just a colourful card, and at its centre the Fool, staring back at them – the sun refusing to glint off the matt surface of the card – far wiser than the two detectives.
