6.

While Carmen dozed, I searched the radio dial until I found an all-news station. I listened to farm reports and weather updates — more summer rain was on the way — and finally:

“Police in Garver have released a surveillance-camera photo of the woman they believe to have killed carnival-owner Leonard Dupree. Authorities still won’t say whether or not they believe this woman to be the Sundown Killer, a serial killer who stalked the highways in Tehama and Shasta Counties a decade ago.”

A photo. I had to see it. Where could I find a television?

In another motel room.

Local newscasts usually ran at five or six in the evening. I decided to keep driving until then.

I watched Carmen sleep.

What was I doing? I wasn’t sure. All I knew was how good she made me feel. I’d been single for a long time, about ten years. I saw the occasional prostitute during that time, but didn’t go on a single date. Then, out of the blue, this quirky, funny woman who was also stunningly gorgeous walked into my life, and I had the best sex I’d ever had in my life.

The voice of reason spoke up in the back of my head: But what if she’s a killer?

The voice of my libido replied, Nobody’s perfect.
