There's Nothing to Be Afraid of
“He was still at the Hall, and his presence at this late hour probably meant that another case was breaking, or just beginning. For a moment he sounded as if he might turn Knox’s death over to someone else—exactly what I didn’t want. While Greg and I would always be separated by the barrier that comes from being former lovers, he was a good cop and I hoped he’d listen to the fragments of an idea that I was beginning to gather.
While I spoke with Greg, Dolly stood outside the booth, one hand on t...he glass of the door, as if she was afraid she might lose touch with me. She stared down the misty, amber-lighted expanse of Market Street toward the theatre where Knox’s body lay. Dolly was another reason I wanted Greg on the scene; in addition to being a good cop, he was a gentle man, and he would deal better with this frightened girl than would most of the other men on the squad.
