There were a few more names on the list, some that looked vaguely familiar to Carlita, perhaps because Pete had mentioned them.

There was a list of employees and a small legend, indicating whether they were The Flying Gunner employees or the Parrot House restaurant employees at the bottom.

“Hey.” Carlita elbowed Elvira. “I noticed your buddy, Ken, is on the list. I don’t remember seeing him there.”

“He couldn’t make it. Looking back, it’s probably a good thing. Ken has a somewhat sketchy background,” Elvira said. “He would definitely be considered a person of interest.”

“Which is why you should never have gotten involved in the Agamerian Project,” Dernice said.

Carlita perked up. “I’m dying to know what this super-secret project is.”

“It’s…”

Elvira wagged her finger at her sister. “Confidentiality agreement.”

“Right.” Dernice cast Carlita an apologetic look. “I can’t talk about it. Although I would love to. It’s absolutely fascinating.”

“Dernice,” Elvira warned as she shook her head.

“Fine.” Dernice changed the subject. “So, now what? We have a list of suspects, all family…literally and figuratively, and a few friends. How do we figure out who had it in for Roxy?”

“I say the next move is to have a chat with Brittney. She’s the one who was closest to Roxy and should be able to give us the most information about her actions before being locked up in the bathroom.”

“Locked up is such a harsh term,” Carlita shifted uneasily. “More like detained.”

“Locked up. Detained. The cops are going to look at it as basically the same.” Elvira looked at the clock. “I have a gig protecting Santa over at the mall. Those kids get downright vicious when it gets close to Christmas. I’m off at six. What time would you like to chat with Brittney?”

“She’s shopping with my other daughters-in-law. They won’t be back until later.”

“Perfect,” Elvira beamed. “We’ll plan on meeting after dinner. Say around seven. Bring Vinnie along. I could stare at that hot hunk all night.”

“You sure you want him to be there? Looking at all of that hunkiness could be a distraction,” Dernice teased.

“I can handle it.” Elvira walked Carlita to the back of the building and followed her into the alley.

They weren’t alone. There was someone else standing there, staring at the back of Elvira’s building.

“It looks like someone has been waiting for you,” Elvira whispered in a low voice. “I gotta get going. Good luck.”

Before Carlita could reply, Elvira stepped back inside and closed the door behind her.
