CHAPTER SEVEN

Sally found the casserole dish Annie wanted and passed it to her. “Are you going to put dumplings on top of this one?”

Annie nodded. “I’ll add some mixed herbs and garlic to the dough. Everyone enjoyed them last week.”

For the last three days, Sally had been helping Annie in her commercial kitchen. Mitch Zambezi was somewhere in Montana. The special agents looking after her had told her not to go back to work. The FBI was ready to charge Mitch with a mile long list of felonies, including the murder of Todd’s family. Now all they had to do was find him.

Sally went back to her own mixing bowl. She picked up the spoon she’d left on the counter and started creaming the butter and sugar. “I’m getting better at baking since I’ve been here.”

Annie smiled. “You have. And what’s better is that you’re out of your house and somewhere safe.”

Sally didn’t know how she would have gotten through the last few days without Annie’s help. She’d become paranoid whenever she stepped outside, certain that Mitch, or one of his gang, would be waiting to finish off what they’d come here to do.

Her imagination had worked overtime, keeping her awake at night and grumpy during the day.

“How’s Todd holding out?”

“He’s okay,” Sally said softly. “I haven’t seen him since we cleaned the barn. He called me the other day and said that Max misses me.”

“Are you sure it’s only Max that misses you?”

Sally put an egg yolk and some lemon juice into the bowl. “We like each other, but we’re not like you and Dylan.”

“Everyone has to start somewhere.”

“But not everyone falls in love.” Sally tipped some grated lemon and orange peel into her bowl and beat the mixture until it was light and fluffy. She wouldn’t tell Annie how she really felt about Todd. He was a great guy. He made her happy. He tolerated her addiction to finding homes for unwanted animals. He didn’t even mind her brothers’ over-protective behavior. And if he wasn’t still grieving for his wife and son, he would have made a wonderful boyfriend.

“So now that I know you like Todd, tell me you’ve invited him to Carolyn’s wedding as your date.”

Sally looked up from the bowl. “He’s not going.”

“What do you mean?”

“The FBI special agents said it was too risky. He’s heading into town on Saturday before the wedding starts.”

“Where’s he going?” Annie stared at Sally until she realized where he’d be. “He’s staying with Dylan, isn’t he?”

Sally nodded. “The security around Dylan’s home is incredible. With Mitch still hiding somewhere in Montana, no one wants to take chances with anyone’s life.” Sally measured the flour and tipped it into her bowl. “After I’ve mixed this together, do you know how long I’m supposed to chill the dough for?”

“One hour should be enough. What about your safety? Who’s looking after you on Saturday?”

“Dominique and Alastair will be with me. I’m safer away from Todd.” Sally wasn’t convinced that was the case, but she wasn’t an expert on how criminal minds worked.
