I walked into the remains of the building, taking care not to disturb broken glass. There were several walking wounded with bleeding cuts from remnants of glass.
I looked around although visibility was limited owing to the dissipating smoke. The floor was covered with rusty nails and broken glass. I stopped to reassure a couple of distressed women and saw two uniformed officers at the entryway. I sent the women to them, letting them know that paramedics would be there to check them over.
I strained to see, the smoke stinging my eyes. I could smell the smoke and also the faint almond smell of Semtex. I wondered if this was an IRA attack, although we would need to wait as they always claimed responsibility by phoning someone in authority, usually at Whitehall. Other terrorist groups did not. However I had a feeling that this was a lot more personal; not abstract violence for violence’s sake.
Then I heard a voice I knew well, that of DI Redfern.
“Come on Thomas,” he was saying, “I need you to stay awake.”
“DI Redfern, it’s Sergeant Wicklow.” I called.
“Sarge, DS Fox is hurt real bad. I’m trying to keep him awake but he’s in a right mess.”
“The paramedics are coming,” I said. I went and found him. The sight of DS Fox lying inert, chest soaked with bloodied glass, chilled me to the bone. DI Redfern covered him with his coat.
