Hotshots (2013)
““How was your weekend?” I asked.
“I had to take my dog to the vet. Otherwise okay. How ’bout you?”
“Interesting. I went back to Thunder Mountain.”
I knew what she’d be doing, pushing her glasses back up her nose. “And what did you find there?”
“Ken Roland.”
“Oh, him.”
“He had a good insurance policy.”
“We’re checking it out, Neil. A guy who loses an expensive house in a fire is a suspect, and we’re looking into his girlfriend Karen, too. She was at Roland’s house that afternoon, but she’s not a... likely suspect; she’s an animal lover. The sheriff’s deputies had to drag her out of the place kicking and screaming about Bambi. Doesn’t it seem unlikely to you that a guy would torch a house with a girlfriend in it?”
“He may not have known she was in it. She told me she didn’t feel well and came home from work early.”
“Henry’s up there this week investigating.”
“Roland invests in the computer industry, a risky business. If I had the resources I’d check out his financial situation.”MoreLess
