Black-Eyed Susans
“Joanna Seger’s office. It isn’t at all what I expect for a rock star scientist. The large window showcases a lovely view of the Fort Worth skyline, but Jo faces the door, welcoming the living. Her desk, a modern black chunk that almost swallows the whole space, is littered with forensic journals and paper. It reminds me of Angie’s desktop in the church basement. The kind of desktop where passion is screwing organization and nobody’s making the bed.
The signature piece rising out of the chao...s: a Goliath computer running $100,000 worth of software. The HD screen displays a roller coaster of lime green and black bar codes. It’s the rare spot of color except for the grinning Mexican death masks and the skeleton bride leering off a shelf like a grisly Barbie. The Mexicans, bless them, have always had a less squeamish, more realistic view of death. I’m guessing Jo can relate.
I’m afraid to peer too closely at what looks like a heart suspended in a glass box, because I’m pretty sure it is a heart suspended in a glass box.MoreLess
