“Oh, my word, what just happened?” Kennedy sputters as I dive into the driver’s seat of my car and slam the door.

“I kicked some spy ass; that’s what happened.” I shuck off my backpack, chuck it into the backseat, and let out a shocked laugh. “I can’t believe I just pulled that off. My dad would be so proud.”

Ev’s expression softens at the mention of my dad. “You found out who took the computer, then?”

I give an exaggerated nod. “Oh, yeah, I definitely found out who took it. And not just Dixon’s computer, but some stuff from other people’s lockers, too.”

“Really?” She shuts the laptop. “So, who did it?”

I’m opening my mouth to answer her when Kennedy and Embry come jogging across the parking lot, laughing nervously as they say something to each other. When they reach my car, they slam to a stop, and Kennedy yanks open the door to the backseat. She scooches in, and Embry follows, pulling the car door shut.

Kennedy rests her elbows on the console. “That was so close. You’re lucky I stepped in.”

“I know.” I rotate around in the seat to look at her. “I’m kind of proud of you. That was some awesome quick thinking.”

“Why, thank you.” She beams, but then her smile falters. “Although, I’m kind of worried that we might end up with a monitor in the locker room now.”

Ev slants her head to the side. “What?”

Embry scoots forward, tucking a strand of red hair behind her ear. “Yeah, please explain what the fuck just happened and why Kennedy looked like she was about to pee her pants when she ran out of the school.”

“I didn’t look like I was about to pee my pants,” Kennedy protests, swatting Embry’s arm. “I was just a little nervous that Ms. Finkleson was going to figure out what we were up to.”

“She seemed a little confused with your locker room story,” I say. “But I think she was pretty clueless about what was going on.”

“Will someone please tell me what’s going on?” Embry begs. “I mean, did it work? Did it not work? Do we know who the thief is?”

“Yep,” I say proudly. “When I got to the right spot on the video, I got a clear shot of the thief breaking into Dixon’s locker and taking off with the computer and doing the same thing to a couple of other lockers next to his.”

“Really?” Kennedy slants forward eagerly. “So, who is it?”

I don’t know whether to smile or frown. While I found out who the thief is, I’m baffled over why this person would steal anything, let alone steal from Dixon.

“It was Liam Stallings,” I announce through my confusion.

Kennedy’s lips part in shock. “Dixon’s best friend stole his computer?”

I nod, my confusion deepening. Not only is Liam Dixon’s best friend, but he also comes from one of the wealthiest families in Shadow Cove. Why he’d need to jack a bunch of computers is beyond me other than maybe he didn’t necessarily want the computers per se, but something on them.
