Shell Game
“It was up to Special Agent Brent Hawkins, as the senior agent in charge of the NewPro case in San Francisco, to convey the results of that decision to Taylor Simons and Alan Bestwick. He phoned Sam Morel and asked him to be present as well. They met at Taylor and Alan’s new house on Pierce Street at seven on Friday, October 20. The sun had dropped into the choppy ocean and a stiff breeze blew in off the water. It was cold when the three police officials walked from their cars to the front door....
Alan answered and welcomed them into a maze of piled boxes. The house smelled of stale smoke, from the previous tenants, and a couple of windows were open in an attempt to air out the rooms. Taylor was dressed in sweats while unpacking one of the larger crates in the living room, her long red hair pulled back in a ponytail. She glanced up as they entered and pointed to where the couch and loveseat sat facing each other in the center of the room.
