“Sounds like someone died.”“Someone did die—a homeless guy named Hank.”“Sorry to hear that.

Hank was an old drunk with a lousy immune system.”“It would’ve been better if Kayla had never discovered her St. Regis roots.” Her nose tingled and she pressed the back of her hand against the tip.“Look, this is bad news for Hank, but maybe we can get some prints from the bag, or the lab can analyze the cookie crumbs to help the doctors treat Kayla.MoreLess
