“Ted Moberly stood beside a navy blue Jeep, Sally leashed and sitting quietly at his side. He leaned against the driver’s side of the Jeep and lit a pipe, and made no move to get in on the conversation between Delores Criswold and the sheriff.

Lena tossed her sweater into the front seat of the Cutlass and headed for Ted... Moberly. She held a hand out for him to shake, but was knocked backward by Sally, who demanded first greeting. Lena scratched Sally’s ears and patted the smooth black head. “Hey, girl.
