“The blond-haired, cherry-cheeked little girl leaned over the cake and blew out the pink birthday candles. She was two years and two months old today. They were getting around to having the birthday they should have celebrated two months earlier. Bianca helped serve the cake to the hungry little kids gathered aboard the Shipleys' yacht in St. Simons Island Harbor on this late afternoon of July 1st. She glanced out the window and smiled at the policemen. She made sure that they got cake, too. She... also sent a piece of cake out to the man that the Shipleys had hired to be Little Katie's temporary bodyguard, Tom Jones — until Harry graduated from his police and surveillance training course in Brunswick, Georgia. Br-r-r-r-ring! Br-r-r-r-ring! "Bianca, it's for you." Mrs. Shipley, Katie's mother, handed her favorite babysitter and Little Katie's godmother the telephone. Bianca had hardly been able to hear the ringing over the voices of the excited little children squealing, jumping up and down, and getting icing all over their faces.MoreLessRead More Read Less
