Chapter 22

Jordan was back in the safe solitude of her home. That alone time was the only way she had the opportunity to do what needed to be done. She could never pull off these heinous crimes if Kent was around. Jordan sat on the couch, a glass of wine at her side, as she scrolled through Myron’s cell phone and deleted every communication between them. Even if the police subpoenaed his records, they could never tie him to her, or any of the victims, for that matter. Her prepaid phone gave her complete anonymity.

The jacket she wore earlier lay submerged in a sink of cold water in the laundry room. She hoped the blood stains would wash away, or she’d have to burn it.

With every conversation now erased, she tossed Myron’s phone into the microwave and set the timer for ten minutes. She had seen somebody do that on a made-for-TV crime series and wanted to know if it would really destroy the phone. With the paperwork she’d taken from the Dormin house lying in the trash can, Jordan struck a match and tossed it in. Flames burst upward and set his daily calendar, along with Ted Arneson’s, on fire. She opened a few windows and poured another glass of wine.

Myron’s name was checked off her list—five down and three to go. The end of the retribution was right around the corner, and she wouldn’t stop until they were all dead.

With the wineglass in one hand and the legal pad in the other, Jordan looked at the next name on her list. Numbers one through eight were written on the left side of the paper with a corresponding name assigned to each number.

The hatred she felt for John Nels, the inspector that had looked over the crumbled retaining wall, took her back to that dark place. That was the day he told her she didn’t have a claim against Cemcom, or anybody, for that matter. She’d never win the lawsuit. Days of constant rain and saturated ground caused the horrific accident—nothing more. She looked forward to ending John Nels’s life. In her mind, everyone skated by scot-free and admitted no responsibility whatsoever. Each person and every company got a pass on his word alone.

That won’t do, now will it, John? I’ll have to come up with something suitable for you.

She stared at the last two names on the sheet and smiled.

Killing you two will give me the most satisfaction of all. I’m saving the best for last.
