The Text by Claire Douglas

This is a short story. 

Emily is really annoyed when Andrew, her boss, suddenly announces that he may not be able to allow her to take some holiday she has booked as they are too busy at work.  She types out a text to send to her boyfriend to tell him what has happened, but in her hurry she accidentally sends the text to a group of her work colleagues instead.  The text unfortunately includes a typo, instead of 'I hope he does' it says 'I hope he dies'.  

The following day Andrew does not turn up for work.  Then the police call round to interview Emily as Andrew has been found dead.  He has been murdered.
