J.K. Rowling, de schrijfster van de Harry Potter-boeken, krijgt na het lekken van haar pseudoniem een schadevergoeding die ze mag schenken aan een goed doel. Een rechtbank in Londen besliste vandaag dat het advocatenkantoor, verantwoordelijk voor het lekken van haar pseudoniem, naar de wens van Rowling een "groot bedrag" moet betalen aan een organisatie voor soldaten. De 47-jarige schrijfster had onder de naam van Robert Galbraith in april de thriller "The Cuckoo's Calling" uitgebracht. Pas midden juli was aan het licht gekomen dat zij de auteur was. Een medewerker van het advocatenkantoor had gelekt wie achter het pseudoniem schuil ging. (Belga / Belga)
Rachel stroke her fingers through her hair. “Oh my God. What have I done?” she mumbled agitated. “Think, Rachel, think” She looked around. Then she grabbed Gabe’s feet and dragged him to the farthest corner.
She ran to the stairs and went to the cuisine where she searched the drawers for matches. In her panic she forgot she had been living here for about twenty years and the matches lay in the seconde drawer suivant to the cupboard underneath the sink ever since. She pulled it open and grabbed the matches. Then she opened the fridge and took out a bottle of Malt Whisky. She ran back downstairs to the body. She opened the bottle of Malt and poured its content over the body. Then she stroke a match and let it fall down and watch how Gabe went up into flames.
As she watched him burn a sudden agony fulfilled her body and she dropped the bottle. She fell down on her knees and felt her body contracting and convulsing while she screamed.
