Little Shop of Homicide
“Boone chortled as we drove away from the party.
“That was a moment to treasure, all right.” I felt a surge of satisfaction at having bested a longtime nemesis. Even if she had an alibi, Nadine had spilled her guts to us.
“She sure hated Joelle.” He curled his upper lip in an imitation of his hero, Elvis Presley. “Not that that was a big shock.”
“Nope.” I stared out the windshield as we zipped past the old homesteads—their neat barns, railed fences, and snow-covered fields reminding me of a simp...le, less-complicated time.
Boone was taking the long way back so we could rehash our triumph, but I was worried that Jake might arrive at my house before we did. Just before we’d left the mansion, I had slipped into the bathroom to call him, and I told him I was on my way home. Not that it was a big secret that Jake was coming over; I just didn’t want Boone to jump to the wrong conclusion. Or even the right one.
“Nevertheless, it was still good to hear Nadine’s take on Joelle.”MoreLess
