I shrugged. “It’s okay with me if it’s okay with Garrett. I have another project I’m working on anyway.”

“Great. I’m going to take some measurements and make some notes, then I’ll call Garrett this afternoon. I should be able to have something to him by next week.”

“Sounds good.” I decided to walk Jack back to his truck, which was filled with baseball equipment. “You coach baseball?”

“I play softball.”

“They have an adult league on the island?”

“We have an adult team on the island. We play teams from other islands. You don’t play, do you?”

“I have. In fact, I coach the girls’ softball team at the high school where I teach.”

“Really? I don’t suppose you’d be interested in filling in for a tournament we’re playing in the weekend after next? One of our regulars is about to have a baby, so we’re short a player.”

“The tournament is on Gull Island?”

“At the recreation center on Shell Beach,” Jack confirmed.

“Okay, I’m in. It sounds like fun. What time do you need me to be there?”

“Nine a.m. on Saturday, July 2nd. We’re having a couple of practices between now and then, if you can make them. It’ll give you a chance to meet everyone before the tournament.”

“I’ll try. When is the next practice?”

“Friday at six.”

“Great. I’ll see you then.”

“You’ll need a team hat and shirt. I’ll let Rick Savage know. He’s the team manager. You can just pick them up at practice.”

I felt a little odd about playing softball with the man I secretly suspected of covering up a murder, but I’d already told Jack I’d do it and I didn’t want to back out now. I wondered how Deputy Savage was going to take the news that I was his new teammate. If he was lying—and my sense was that he was—he had to realize I wasn’t buying everything he was telling me.
