“The whole time.”

“They keep asking when he left here. How the hell’m I s’posed to know?”

“He was late. He said you didn’t tell him till after fishing.” She hadn’t thought to tell the detective that.

“Well, that’s his story.”

“I know, but did you?”

He snorted. “Like it makes any difference?” Now his eyes narrowed to slits. “Maybe he did go before, ever think of that? Probably only takes a couple minutes to kill someone like that. Leave. Come back later.”

“I don’t know,” she said, shrugging. Though she’d never actually done the Japanese Strangle Hold, she knew there weren’t many steps involved. She wanted to leave. She’d come here expecting support as Max’s ally, but Charlie’s suspicions were too unsettling. Like hearing Max called a sex offender. In order for Max to be innocent, she needed him beyond everyone’s reach.

“Just doesn’t make sense, that’s all. Him and his dog, that’s all he cared about. Never even talked about a woman.”

She asked Charlie if he’d been to the jail to visit Max. He hadn’t, he said, but he’d thought about it. Well, if he did go visit, would he take her with him, she asked.

“You can’t go!” He looked surprised. “You’re the star witness.”
