In his cramped (to limit someone, especially to prevent them from
enjoying a full life) office - previously a storeroom off the main CID
(Criminal Investigation Department) suite - Detective Chief Inspector James
Page listened to their report. Gayfield Square ( is located in south
east of Broughton, ancient feudal barony, today within the City of Edinburgh)
police station was part of the city's B Division, but that designation would
soon vanish, and Page feared that the station itself would be closed, knocked
down and redeveloped.
The 'Square' outside was an area of grass which didn't get mowed
(to cut plants, such as grass or wheat) enough. Traffic rumbled (to make a
continuous low sound) up and down Leith Walk (is one of the longest
streets of Edinburgh), sometimes causing the windows at the front of the
building to vibrate.
So the boot ended up (to finally be in a particular place)
there how?' he asked.
He or she panicked - for whatever reason - and hoofed it
(to walk somewhere, or to walk somewhere quickly). But not before undoing
(to unfasten) her seat belt and hauling (to
pull or drag something heavy with effort) her across to the driver's side.
