New Year's Eve Murder (2015)
“While I was out Jill had telephoned to say the police had come to interview her last night, and she hadn’t sounded happy about it. She wished people would just leave her alone.
Then Jack had called the detective who caught the case and he had said words to the effect that, hey, a gal borrows a car, says she’s taking a hundred-mile drive, and she knows the car doesn’t have to be back till Sunday night. What’s the problem?
The problem was, she hadn’t called home and had missed a big date, but the... detective didn’t seem to think much of that. You never knew a girl who took longer getting home than she said?
“So then I called Kevin,” Jack went on. “That wasn’t just a zero; it was a minus. If you want my opinion, he doesn’t know the first thing about what’s going on in Susan’s head. He doesn’t know where she went or why. He knows something’s bothering her but she’s never let him in on her secret. And it really gripes him to have to admit it.”
“Even to a nice guy like you.”MoreLess
