Part 1, Chapters 21-29 Summary

Poppy and Douglas are moved to a safe house in the seaside town of Hove. Douglas realizes that an insider must have leaked his previous location to Martin. He considers Lance, Sue, and Poppy as potential sources and decides he can only trust Elizabeth. He thinks about the many affairs he had when they were married. His final indiscretion with Sally Montague ended the marriage, and Sally briefly became his next wife.

At Coopers Chase, Joyce calls Poppy’s mother, Siobhan, to tell her what has happened to her daughter. She invites Siobhan to visit the retirement village and asks for her address. Shortly afterward, Joyce receives a visit from an old friend, Yvonne. As Yvonne lives near Poppy’s mother, Joyce asks her to deliver a friendship bracelet to Siobhan’s door.

The next day, Ibrahim is discharged from the hospital and returns to Coopers Chase. Feeling unready to face his friends, he goes for a haircut. As he is about to pay, he realizes his credit card is missing. Meanwhile, Bogdan goes to Connie’s house and exchanges Elizabeth’s money for cocaine. He meets Ron, who is dressed as a plumber, and gives him the bag of drugs. Ron gains entry to Ryan’s address, claiming he has come to check the water pressure.
