Savages: a Nameless Detective Novel (Nameless Detective Novels)
“Kerry was curled up on the living room couch with a book and Shameless, the world’s laziest cat. When she saw the box she said with mock excitement, “For me? You shouldn’t have.”
“I didn’t,” I said. “It’s not for you.”
“Aha. One of your other women.”
“The only other woman in my life is Emily, and it’s not for her, either.”
I set the box on the coffee table, went over to kiss her. She’d put on fresh makeup, brushed her auburn hair to a silky gloss. She looked good and tasted good, and I told her... so.
“I feel good,” she said. “The checkup did wonders for my spirits.”
“You didn’t try to do too much today?”
“No. Worked for a while, took a nap, had a long talk with Cybil on the phone. Oh, and Paula stopped by for a few minutes. She brought me this book.”
Paula was Paula Hanley, an interior designer friend of Kerry’s and a grade-A flake. To put it mildly. Among Paula’s none too endearing traits was a certainty that what was good for her was also good for everybody else; she mounted conversion campaigns at every opportunity.MoreLess
