‘It’s true, chocolate can kill you.’
Daisy shook her head as she stood outside, trying not to take any notice
of Fi’s chatter. She waved goodbye to two of their guests as the taxi drove
them away, cheered as she always was by the pristine white building that
her boss had referred to as looking like a block of ice cream. To her it
looked like a softly curved ship standing proudly at the top of the driveway.
It spoke to her of history and Jersey between the wars and happy days filled
with sunshine like the old 1930s posters she’d seen hanging up in the back
office.
She smiled, taking in the elegant white building with its marine blue
thick stripe painted across the entire length of the frontage just above the
second-floor windows and its narrower triple stripes at either end. She
loved this place with its history and what it meant to so many people in the
island and those that visited.
‘I promise you, I’m right. Daisy, are you listening to me?’
She held back a groan and walked back inside, returning to sit at her
desk. Daisy glanced at the large, geometric clock behind her at the
minimalist reception in the hotel. She was determined to finish reconciling
the hotel bookings before the end of her shift. Her boss needed to know
where the hotel stood so alternative plans could be made. The unexpected

Fi giggled. ‘I knew you couldn’t resist any mention of chocolate.’
Daisy laughed. ‘You can talk. At least I only eat one bar at a time; you
buy a family pack and wolf the lot down,’she said, looking in amazement at
girl who must be at least five feet ten in height but remained skinny. She’d
heard from other members of staff that Fi’s brother, Sebastian Fielding, was
a hugely successful local businessman, who was also very tall, so height
obviously ran in their family.
‘So?’
Daisy turned her gaze on her assistant. ‘It must be in your genes,
because you should be stones heavier than you are, with what you consume
in a day.’
Fi opened her mouth to speak, when a whirlwind in the form of Mrs
Grey, the eighty-something co-owner of the hotel, pushed back the double
black lacquered front doors and raced in. Daisy had grown very fond of
Lydia since she’d begun working at the Encore. Although the huge white
ship-like hotel was mostly run by Lydia’s daughter, Francesca, and son-inlaw, Rick, both of them spent several months a year working away and
