Chapter Nineteen

‡

“I need you to go to New York City and talk to that bookie. I already called to have them ready the corporate jet.”

Travis pulled Shane aside while Aubrey was chatting with her sister on the phone. She’d been elated at the news that she was no longer under suspicion but of course sad that Martin and Caroline weren’t out of the woods yet. As far as Travis was concerned Detective Prather wasn’t thinking globally enough. He was concentrating only on the guests at the party. Bruce had far more enemies than just those people.

“I can do that,” Shane easily agreed. “I wouldn’t mind trying to talk to a few of Bruce’s business associates either. He had to have pissed off dozens over the years, what with his winning personality and caring attitude. I’ll fly out tonight. Are you staying here in Florida or heading back to Tremont?”

“Staying here for the time being. I hate to leave a friend when the shit has really hit the fan, if you know what I mean. I don’t know if I can help him but I want to try. Martin has done so many things for me all these years. I’d like to pay him back.”

Even now Martin was demonstrating amazing grace under pressure. Travis was more impressed than ever with his mentor and friend. Martin could have pulled the billionaire card and brought in a phalanx of attorneys, but instead he’d stayed open and accessible. The man was a class act.

“There’s only so much you can do, Trav. You can’t do the police’s job for them.”

“I’m only trying to help. I’m aware that most police officers are underpaid and overworked. I don’t doubt that Prather wants the real killer, but his limited resources don’t allow him to look further than the small pool of suspects right here at the party. He doesn’t have the manpower to look elsewhere.”

Shane tapped a note into his phone before shoving it back into his pocket. “Do you honestly believe the killer isn’t here this weekend? It’s a long shot. I agree with Prather on this one. Someone here had the best opportunity. The murderer is someone you know, maybe even someone you care about.”

Travis glanced sideways, ensuring that Aubrey was still deep in conversation with Gigi. “Is this your not so subtle way of saying you think it might be Martin? I’ve known the man for over fifteen years and he’s no killer.”

“All I’m saying is that it could be one of your friends here at the party. Someone you like and respect. You need to prepare yourself for that and not let your personal feelings blind you as we find out more information.”

There needed to be a change in subject. Now.

“Tell me what Iris said. Did you find out anything at all?”

Shane’s brows shot up and he grinned like the cat that ate the canary. “She has a boyfriend. Another one. But she never said his name. I think he was the one she was talking about to Aubrey because she mentioned he was really good looking.
