[[Jenny Cornelius]] is driving back home in the [[Mod Rod]] when she decides to make a stop by “[[Aziraphale#In Jenny Cornelius's world|her favourite bookshop]]”.

There, she is instead accosted by [[Crowley#In Jenny Cornelius's world|a laid-back person dressed in all black]]. He tells Jenny that the bookseller's not in, but advises her to go look into the business in [[Slough]] with a “bunch of mystic gits” who are worshipping someone called "the [[Tenth Lord Grell]]”, whom they believe to be a [[demon]] even though the demon in black is certain that he's not one of “[his] lot”, and not an angel either. The demon in black explains that he'd come in the first place in order to ask the bookseller if he wanted to look into it, and is thus happy to have found someone else to put on the case. | ||
Agreeing to help, Jenny phones [[Laura Drake#Working for the Intelligence Taskforce|Laura]], who has in fact been asked by her [[Intelligence Taskforce|superiors]] to investigate the exact same affair. She tries in vain to discourage Jenny from meddling, but Jenny drives there the following evening anyway. After arriving in Slough, she uses a crystal bound with a few of Laura's hairs and an Ordnance Survey map to locate Laura herself. Guided to an unremarkable brick building, she knocks at the front door and is immediately assaulted by a leering guard who lets slip that Laura has already come here and is being held captive in a storeroom. With a brush of her hand over his arm, she [[shift]]s the hapless villain away to parts unknown and walks in. | Agreeing to help, Jenny phones [[Laura Drake#Working for the Intelligence Taskforce|Laura]], who has in fact been asked by her [[Intelligence Taskforce|superiors]] to investigate the exact same affair.
