“What do you have for us?” Hunter asked as Triss led Harrison into her small living room. The new place was furnished, but bare, and Hunter suspected Triss would leave it that way.

Harrison sat on one of the living-room chairs and pulled his laptop from his briefcase. “A few things,” he said as he opened the laptop, his expression serious.

Triss took the seat next to him, her hair almost dry, thick waves making her look even younger than her twenty-two years. He’d only ever seen her hair pin-straight, but the waves made her seem softer somehow. Which was probably why she made a point of straightening it, he reasoned.

She caught him looking and quickly looked away. They’d been at Harmony for nearly two hours, but they hadn’t had much time to speak. Officer Goodson had arrived with his partner again, and had been interviewing each person who had been on the boat. They’d circle back and interview the ferry crew as well. Meanwhile, Hunter had been helping Vince and Adam install security cameras and set up the monitoring software on the new computers. They’d need more time to get all the locks changed out, even with help from Shield.

Triss looked impatient as Harrison’s fingers flew across his keyboard. Hunter suspected he knew why. She needed to be at work in a couple of hours, and the security team had yet to announce the new security plan to the residents and staff. Vince and Adam had assured her they’d take care of it before dinner, but that wasn’t looking likely.

“The good news is that Don is in the clear, so far,” Harrison finally said. He turned the monitor toward them—a dating web site was on the screen, Don’s profile featured with a photo that looked a decade old and the caption “Seeking Soulmate.”

“So, that’s why he keeps getting on a computer in the corner,” Triss said, amusement playing over her face.

“Isn’t it a little soon to be looking for a date?” Hunter asked. “Genevieve died, what, two weeks ago?”

Triss’s smile fell and she nodded. “True.”

“People get lonely,” Harrison remarked. “Of course, we can’t exclude him completely, but his digital fingerprint is clean as far as I can see.”

“And he wasn’t on the ferry today,” Triss pointed out.

“Okay, what else did you find?” Hunter asked.

Harrison pulled up another screen, and Hunter leaned closer for a better look.

“Instructions on how to create a timed detonator,” Harrison explained. “And ways one might conceal it.”

Hunter’s pulse picked up as he met Harrison’s serious eyes. “Like under the gas cap of a vehicle.” Someone had planted a device on Triss’s car. This was information that needed to be handed over to the police.

“Who?” Triss asked, her body statue-still.

“Unfortunately, we don’t know. Whoever ran this search knew Frank Townsend’s log-in information. The search was run two days after his death, under his account, well after midnight.”

“Who has access to computer passwords and log-ins?” Hunter asked.

“We have an IT guy who works here a few hours a week,” Triss said.
