I grinned, then frowned. “How does she know you’re here?”

“What? I’m visiting.”

I lowered my head. “We’re gonna have to tell her what’s going on.”

“Nothing’s going on. Misty’s taken up crime-solving and wanted a weekend to herself to do some shady sleuthing shit. I’m taking her place as a mermaid for the weekend. That’s it.”

“Except that she left her phone behind,” I said.

“And except that she left me, too,” Jeremy said.

I scowled at him. “It’s just a break.”

“I’m worried I left that photo of Eva hanging crooked as hell,” Mason said. “When I heard Mackey come in⁠—”

Christy said, “No worries, Uncle Mace. I’ll slip in and straighten it.”

“Be careful,” he replied. And she nodded. “I’m going to head over to the local PD, then.”

“Tell me you’re not going to report my sister missing, Uncle Mason.”

“No. For the record, I think you’re right. She’s out playing detective.”

I saw the pride in Mason’s eyes when he said the word detective. That was the look he’d had at Jeremy’s graduation from the police academy. He was glowing with pride. “Um, she’s out playing amateur detective. She gets that from me.”

“I’ll claim half credit,” he fired back with a wink. “Jere, you’re with me. I bet we can get a look at the files on Eva Quaid. Professional courtesy and all.”

“That’s brilliant, Uncle Mace,” Jeremy said. And that look in Mason’s eyes got brighter. He was as proud of his nephews and my nieces, soon-to-be his by marriage, as if they were our own offspring.
