“So, he’s got to be A. He had to have written the note Miranda found in Teresa’s trashcan,” I said.

“That’s how I figured it, too,” Jake said.

“It’s kind of odd, him showing up like this right after she’s been murdered.”

“He told me that he heard the news when he got back to his office, and he took time off work immediately to hurry up here. He admitted to me that he’d been trying to get her back, and he claimed that just when he thought she was warming up to him again, this happened. He seemed heartbroken enough about it.”

“Do you believe him?” I asked my husband.

“The truth of the matter is that if Miranda hadn’t read that letter and shared its contents with you, I would have completely bought his story. He made a very compelling argument that everything he said was true, and I found myself giving him the benefit of the doubt. He must be one heck of an attorney, I can tell you that much. I’m not that easy to sway.”

“Even given what he told you, I’m still not sure why he’s here,” I said. “What good can possibly come from his presence, even if everything he told you was true?”

“He claims that there’s still unfinished business he had with her and that he wouldn’t be able to rest until her killer was caught, but I wonder.”

When Jake didn’t continue, I asked, “What exactly is it that you’re wondering? Would you care to share it with me?”

“Sorry. Did I not finish the thought?”

“You did not,” I said.

“I’ve been mulling over one possibility since he first introduced himself. What if he killed her himself?” Jake asked as he frowned.

“Wow, is that always the first place your mind goes?”
