“Okay, but who?” Mia asked. “Some golfer who hit into the trap and got lucky? What’s that look on your face?”

“Are you Tad?” I asked a young man twenty minutes later. We’d gotten his name and location from a woman working at the clubhouse. She’d checked in with him via a walkie-talkie clipped to his belt.

“Yeah?” Tad said. He was in his early twenties. Slender. Extremely blond hair. Had a tan from working outdoors all the time. He was working on what appeared to be some sort of pump that was part of the sprinkler system.

I said, “If I left a club in a sand trap last night, right before dark, I understand you would’ve been the person to find it, right?”

“Yeah, but I didn’t find anything this morning.”

“That’s because I didn’t actually lose a club. I just wondered who would’ve found it if I had lost one.”

He looked at me, puzzled. “Well, that’s weird, but okay.”

“The point is, you tend the traps every morning, right?”

“I do, yeah.”

“That includes raking them?”

“Yes, sir.”

“How long have you been doing that?”

“About four years. I’m not sure what this is about. Did you really lose something?”

“I lost my sense of wonder years ago, if that counts. But let’s not worry about that right now. Instead, I need to ask you one more question, and if you answer it honestly, no matter what the answer is, I promise we’ll leave and you’ll never see us again. No cops, either. Just tell the truth and we’re gone. You understand what I’m saying?”

“Not really.”

“But if you lie, things will not go well.”

“Lie about what? Dude, I’ve got no idea what you’re even—”

“The cash you found in the sand trap.”

He looked at me for a long moment, then said, “Oh.”
