Geir listened, hearing the word Texas again. He nodded. “He was in Texas for quite a while.”

She nodded again. “I think he was in a lot of places. But he had to have a reason for going from one state to the other.”

“Maybe things got too hot here?” he suggested.

She shrugged. “I think I heard something about Washington State in there too.”

Geir settled back. “Honestly I imagine a lot of states are involved.”

“Well, if he’s a pedophile and crossed state lines, can’t you get the FBI’s help?”

“I could if it was made official.”

“If there were a lot of victims, I would think they’d need justice. Not to mention closure.”

“Plus he needs to be stopped. He’s still playing his games.”

“If he’s in his early sixties now, chances are good he has been doing this for forty-plus years.”

“Yes. His brother committed suicide as a teen. So it could quite easily span forty to forty-five years, if his brother was a victim too.”

“What sends a man onto that path? It’s hard to think about.”

He nodded. “How does anyone know? Maybe he was abused as a child too, not that I would feel sorry for him at this point because he took that abuse and turned it against everyone else.”

She shuddered. “Well, at least the police have it now to handle.”

He gave her a lopsided grin. “They do, and they don’t.”

She stared at him and sighed. “Meaning, you haven’t shared all the information with them?”

“We did make an anonymous phone call so the two bodies from last night would be found. As we learn more over the next couple days, we can come forward with it all and approach the police but only to a handpicked officer chosen by Mason.”

“I wonder how long that poor man lay there.”

“It’s hard to say, but the man who was later shot knew about the dead body. I heard that much.”

“So he was shot to keep him quiet?”

“As far as we can figure.”

She got up and poured coffee for both of them. “So what do you do now?”

“Continue our research. If it was Poppy who shot this most recent guy last night, we did get the registration and license plate off the car he drove.”

“The car you were chasing?”

“Yes.”

She shook her head. “I need to be in my studio as much as I can. I must have several paintings ready for tomorrow.”

“Are you worried about it?”

“Yes. I think the gallery owner is hesitant about letting me have a spot. He’s very protective about the work hitting his quality level. And I’m very concerned about hitting it too.” She gave Geir a wry smile.

He nodded. “In that case, I hope you’ll have a good day painting.”

She nodded. “I think I also have one couple leaving today. And I’m not sure about Ken, the other gentleman.”

“I haven’t seen him yet.” Geir frowned. “I haven’t met the couple either.”

She chuckled. “They might be honeymooners,” she said. “Besides, not everyone is up at the crack of dawn, like I am.”

He grinned. “There are worse ways to spend the time.
