Chapter 10

Morning seemed fairly well-behaved. Hanna had scrammed from the yacht very early. Emergency suturing waited for no woman. She was off to save someone with her handiwork. Thankfully, she had saved Rachel. While exercising in our gym, I concluded that maybe she had little post-it-notes scattered about with tasks, and suggestions she might have had.

After a shower, and an imaginary search for a list from the doctor, I fixed breakfast for everyone. By this time the women were awake. Summer was jogging on the beach. Rachel was probably breaking her promise to Hanna by getting up to be seated at the breakfast nook. Evan helped me in the kitchen. I slid my crazy ship-imprinted apron on. She’d tied it securely. It was nice to have her around.

When Rachel joined us, I asked her about checking in-depth on Ryder’s past. Between the lines of police reports. Seeking files through backhoeing.

“Records may well be gone, and maybe I won’t get any more than Evan found,” Rachel said as she tore a croissant and slipped its flaky corner into her mouth. “The Court often erases and tidies when the kid is under eighteen. And depending on the disposition of the case, sometimes the age is twenty-one. But I’ll check it out.”

“Summer is going to stay here with you, Rach,” I muttered. “She’ll be checking Cambridge for any stories. What do you think of the idea of sending her up there to snoop?”

“My guess is it would be more productive for her to chase down information on the kid called Javier. From what I’ve got, he was a local high school grad, but didn’t go on to college. Ryder Hodges hangs out with him when he’s home on vacation from Harvard.”

“You’re right,” I acknowledged. “We need her here.”

Rachel covered her eyes a moment. “Oh, and we got a last name for Javier. That guy Summer talked with about Javier checked it out. His last name is Ramon. Javier Ramon. The bartender also said that both Ryder and Javier finished high school together just last year. Hodges got kicked out of a ritzy boarding school. But it didn’t exclude him from Harvard.”

“Did he give you the name of the private boarding school?”

“Yes. And I called them. They don’t divulge information about their student, or former students. No charges were made.”

I slipped a forkful of omelet in my mouth. The burst of hot pepper was perfect. “We certainly know the way that translates. Those Ivy League folks cover for one another.”

Evan grinned in my direction. “I’m so glad I don’t need to include bad guys in my research. Rotten for my blood pressure. But just think, I wouldn’t have needed to study to get into a top college. Born rich would have taken care of it, as well as bad behavior.”

“A bad guy tried to bomb your butt,” Rachel nonchalantly commented. “You do realize that now you’re a target. While we can’t prove that Ryder killed Pixy, which I’m certain we all believe, it can be proved that Ryder attempted to murder you.
