He kissed her, then grinned. “I don’t think that has anything to do with murder, Miss Amalfi.”

She frowned. “Of course it does. First, when Finley was missing, she waited nearly twenty-four hours before telling anyone but her gardener there might be a problem. What could be more suspicious than that? Then, his death scarcely bothered her, and now the inn is hers. Opportunity and motive, Inspector. What else is there?”

“Inheriting a mortgage as large as this one is hardly a motive, Miss Amalfi.”

“What about insurance?”

“Tay didn’t carry any. He was relatively young, healthy, and couldn’t afford it.”

“I still say she’s guilty as sin. You’re being duped.”

He placed his hands on her shoulders. “Forget Moira. I want you to stay with one of the women at all times when I’m not here. If I could, I’d get you off this hill right now, but we’re all stuck in this together. Am I clear?”

“Quite.”

“I don’t want anything to happen to you,” he commanded, his tone harsh, his eyes like flint.

“Yes, sir!” she said.

He looked at her proud little chin, her upturned mouth, the sparkle in her eyes, and something inside him melted. “And don’t be so goddamn sassy.” He gave her a kiss, hard and possessive, before he turned and walked out of the room.
