Chapter 14

Since I couldn’t sleep I decided to make a list of suspects. I told myself this was a crazy idea, but nevertheless, I found a pad of paper and a pencil. I started jotting down names. Finn Fine. I hated to add his name. First of all, I had to get to know Finn better. What would he say if he saw his name at the top of this list? However, since I didn’t know him well, I had to add him to the list. He’d had access to the cupcakes.

As for the victim, I knew she had been having an affair with Ruby’s boyfriend. So that made Ruby a suspect and her boyfriend. Ruby had been sweet to me, but that didn’t mean she couldn’t be a killer. I shivered at the thought of sitting in that chair while she stood inches away applying my makeup. Had I been talking to her right before she’d murdered someone?

Who else had been at the studio when the murder occurred? How long had it been between when I’d found the body and when Corina had been murdered? It certainly didn’t help that there had been a chocolate cupcake sitting there. It made it look like possibly I’d had something to do with the murder. Not to mention the fact that I’d found her. Who would’ve had access to the cupcakes other than Finn and me? Pretty much everyone on set. The cupcake certainly hadn’t been there when I’d been in the makeup chair.

Finn would’ve had access, of course. Could he have done something like this and what would be his motive? He had been walking behind me at the restaurant. Okay, I didn’t know that for sure, but I certainly thought it had been him. I was jumping to conclusions. He could’ve certainly left the cupcake there though. Maybe he was trying to frame me for the murder.

Who else would’ve had access to the set? Who would’ve been there? Kristen could’ve taken a cupcake. Ruby could’ve taken it, but why? A reason to get into the dressing room? An offer of a sweet treat? Of course, then there was the boyfriend. He had been there and seemed angry. He could’ve done this for sure. After all the notes, I really didn’t have much of a list.

Even I was on the list. That wasn’t good. Well, technically I hadn’t written my name down, but I had to remember that other people were probably thinking of me as a possible killer. That thought gave me shivers all over. I thought I seemed like a nice person, so how could they think that? Then again, the people I listed on the paper seemed like nice people too and I was suspicious of them.

I supposed I could understand why I would be on someone else’s list. Now I just had to focus on getting myself off their list and finding the real killer. Taking notes was getting me nowhere tonight and I really needed to get some sleep so that I could be fresh in the morning.
