Weapons of Mass Distraction
“After dropping Lily at her temporary residence, I drove home to my bungalow and pulled onto the dark driveway. Sure, I had good memories in abundance of the dinner, but the crumb-filled tissue crumpled on the passenger seat was a reminder that anytime now, Carter Simons Junior could be informing someone of Lily’s and my excursion, uninvited, onto his property. I did not look forward to having to explain it to Solomon when he called me out on it, especially when we didn’t even discover anything ...really useful. Lily’s photos were blurry, except for a couple of cake shots, and one of the powder room wallpaper, and the conversation we overheard was more perplexing than pertinent. And the mark... it could have been anything, I reasoned. Maybe I just wanted it to be a butterfly.Grabbing the napkin, I threw it in the trash on my way to my front door. The path was dark and I pulled a face at the lamp, which failed to turn on, then nearly tripped over something large and heavy in my way. I squealed when something thumped my foot.“Barney!MoreLess
