Chapter 7

By now, Amaya had gotten to know Marionette and Molly fairly well. Well enough to know that both of them had a knack for getting themselves involved where they probably shouldn’t, but there was no doubt in saying that they had a tremendous amount of luck where that was concerned. Amaya knew Marionette much better – her fellow French-American. The woman simply cared about people, and it was this reason she had wound up renting half her art shop out to Kris, the private investigator who was now a constant part of their lives for better or for worse. Marionette had been dragged into a number of his cases since. And Molly was no different. Daughter of a former big-city detective, girlfriend to a Savannah cop, and a former investigative journalist turned sweet connoisseur. Amaya, on the other hand, was not like these ladies.

Amaya was a soft, shy sort of girl – also quite unlike Roxie, the unlikely new woman in their group of gal pals. There was no way Amaya would ever do anything even remotely unsavory, and yet she suddenly found herself digging around in Patricia’s purse that she had left behind after being escorted up to speak directly with the captain in the cockpit. Digging around in another woman’s purse was something Amaya would have never caught herself doing under any other sort of circumstances, yet she was rather thrilled by the idea now. Somehow, she found herself being pulled into this world that Marionette and Molly knew all too well. She felt like a detective.

“Everything okay over here?” Amaya heard Trinity’s voice, and she promptly kicked Patricia’s purse under her seat so that the flight attendant didn’t catch her red-handed with her arm stuffed down into the woman’s personal belongings.

“What?” Amaya exclaimed, sitting upright and attempting to regain her composure after the surprise. “Oh, all right? Yes, of course everything’s all right. Why wouldn’t it be?”

Trinity smiled weakly at her. “Well… someone did just… die… a few rows behind you. And you were sitting next to his wife.” Trinity sighed and then leaned in slightly, speaking now in a whisper. “And I know how Patricia can be.”

Amaya blushed slightly. “I’m guessing she and Ralph would use this airline frequently?”

“Every other week just about,” Trinity said. “Always flying somewhere for Ralph and Charles’s business.”

“That’s sweet that he would take his wife on business trips,” Amaya said.

“It’s not sweet,” Trinity said. “She tags along to keep an eye on him to make sure he stays in line. Got arrested last summer for sexual harassment – taken right off one of the planes.”

Amaya raised a brow. “Seriously?”

“Yeah,” Trinity said with a slight eye roll. “Don’t get me wrong, he was a decent guy, but he was handsy. A fellow flight attendant punched him last summer. Airline almost fired her, but someone had caught the whole exchange on video, and she was going to sue the airline if they did because it was so obvious who was at fault. Anyone in their right mind would have socked him for the way he was acting.
