Together Alone
“EMILY TOLD Brian after they had dropped Dawn at her dorm and set out for China Pond Road. She shifted under her seat belt to face him. “I wish she would have let us drop her home. Do you think Carter will go back for her?”
“Not if he has any brains. He knows we’re on to him. I’ll write up a formal report to have on file in case he shows up again, but he isn’t the type to take risks. He’ll just go find another woman to latch on to.”
“Think he’s married?”
“I plan to check.”
“Think he’s an architect?”
“Possibly. But if so, he isn’t as successful as he lets on. He doesn’t have any fancy office in Cambridge, or, I’d wager, half the clients he told Celeste about, and if he travels around, like he said when he answered her ad, it’s to skip out when women catch on to his game. He carries a Minnesota driver’s license. The BMW belongs to a friend.”
Much as Emily had been against Celeste’s ad, much as she wanted to say, “I told you so,” she couldn’t.
