ah, the pregnant pause, a bit like the non-pregnant pause, Non-generic twins, in fact.

Very strange. Definitely a case for genetic forensics, where are the days of intrigue and mystery? My advice? Just let it be.

This suggested novel, is it supposed to be a detective thriller or a horror? Do you get it in non-fiction?

Suspense "A pregnant pause ensues... " oh no! Not again! Nolan &
