Nick leaned back from his computer and held the gold pin up to the light streaming through the attic skylight. The tiny A sparkled.

He had spent half the afternoon searching online for anything resembling it, and he had come up blank. He even scanned the face of the pin and tried a Google match. Nada.

The A had to stand for something, and the infinity symbol was probably significant, too, but without any clues it was all just guesswork.

“I’m not surprised you didn’t find anything,” Caitlin said when he called her, which may or may not have implied that she thought he was inept. Nick couldn’t say for sure, but he wasn’t about to use the reel-to-reel to find out. That would be far too sneaky. “All right,” said Caitlin. “Then we’ll go with plan B.”

“I didn’t know there was a plan B.”

“There’s always a plan B.”

She explained there was a jeweler in town who was the expert in personal adornment.

“I really don’t feel comfortable showing the pin to anyone else,” Nick told her.

“Don’t worry,” Caitlin assured him. “He’s a family friend; we’ve been going to him for years. He’s the model of discretion.”

“Whatever that means,” said Nick.

“It means we can trust him. Anyway, I already set up an appointment. He doesn’t usually work late on Sundays, but I think he has a crush on my mother, and he keeps hoping she’ll come in one day to have her wedding ring appraised. So he made a special exception. We have a meeting with him at seven thirty tonight.”
