The cousins’ eyes were riveted on the corpse. It was a man of medium build, perhaps middle-aged, facedown among the lily pads. He was wearing dark slacks and a deep green ski parka. Renie sputtered and turned away. Judith gritted her teeth and edged closer. The body bobbed peacefully as the winter wind ruffled the waters of the pond.
    “What do we do?” Renie asked falteringly.
    Judith craned her neck, trying to see over the terraced bank that led up from the sunken garden. Despite her heig
...ht, she couldn’t manage it. “We wait. The last thing I want to do is alert the media and get myself plastered all over KINE-TV. Or KWIP, or any of the nightly newscasts.”
    “Great,” Renie said, her tone morbid. “We get to sit down here in this hole with a stiff. Is there another way out?” Trying to avoid looking at the dead body, Renie scanned the terraces that surrounded the pond. “We might climb up the other side and escape through the rose garden.”
