““It’s been a pleasure working with you, Constable Longineaux.”
Longineaux grabbed his hand and pumped it once. “I’m sorry the leads didn’t pan out, but I know you’ll catch the thieves soon. I only wish I could be there when you do.”
“If you get any response from those advertisements—”
“You’ll be the first to know.” The constable scraped his foot on the floor. “Who knows, maybe one of these days I’ll come up to Chicago and see your Pinkerton operation.”
“I’d like that.” David left the busy polic...e office, squinting at the sunlight as he considered what to do next. He could rent a horse from the nearby livery stable, but it wasn’t that far to the docks. A walk might clear his head.
The sights around him faded as David once again went through the events at Jackson Square. What had Petrie been trying to tell him? He shook his head in frustration. He had run into an impenetrable wall here. It was time to leave.
The New Orleans Police Department had shelved their case when no new robberies occurred.MoreLess
