Hornet's Nest
“Every cop in the greater Charlotte-Mecklenburg area knew that Hammer and West ate breakfast at the Presto every Friday morning. This was monitored far more closely than the cops supposed either woman knew, for there wasn’t an officer interested in survival who would take even the slimmest chance that something bad might happen to the chief or deputy chief on his beat.
The small grill looked as it had in the forties, when it was built. It was on West Trade Street and surrounded by eroded par...king lots, just down from the Mount Moriah Primitive Baptist Church. Hammer preferred walking from headquarters when the weather was nice, as it was this day. West never walked when she could ride, but it was not her call.
“Nice suit,” Hammer said to West, who had opted to give her uniform a day off and was dressed in a red blouse and a bright blue pants suit. “Why do you never wear skirts?” Hammer asked her.
It was not a criticism, just curiosity.MoreLess
