CHAPTER 7

“A re you sure we should be here?” Kiera asked her. They were just pulling into a parking space outside of the police station. The question was a little late, in Addie’s opinion.

They were here. They were doing this.

“Yes, I’m sure,” she said. “I know we were going back to Stonecrest to find Willow, but we have to do this first.”

“You still haven’t told me why.”

Addie stared through the windshield, both hands on the wheel, and chose her words carefully. “I think I know who killed Autumn Lynch. I’m going to prove it.”

“Oh? Do you care to tell me who that would be, Corbin or August?”

“I don’t want to say,” Addie told her. “Not until I’m sure. Can you stay here? This is going to be a one-woman job.”

Kiera studied her oddly. She had to know there was something else going on, but if so she didn’t say anything. She simply nodded and settled back into the contours of the passenger seat to wait.

Addie got out of the Jeep, taking her keys with her, making sure to keep her face turned away from Kiera. She would have left the engine running for her sister, considering the cold, but she needed her keys for this. This wasn’t going to take long. She hoped.

The real reason she didn’t want to tell Kiera what she was thinking was simple, and at the same time it was so very complicated. Both Corbin and August were strong suspects in this mystery. Autumn had been about to divorce Corbin for his money. August wasn’t her real brother. A good mystery writer could craft an airtight case around either of those two.

The thing of it was, they weren’t the only ones here at the Birch Hollow police station. There was a third man here, and it was that man who Addie suspected more than anyone else.

Alan. Kiera’s son.

It killed her to even think it, but the pieces were falling into place around him. She just hoped she was wrong.

The building was a two-story brick structure with square corners and a curved overhang suspended above the doorway. There were lights in the windows and lights around the front door and a floodlight illuminating the town seal affixed to the side of the doors. It was all very serious looking. Even at this hour of the night, officers came and went through a side entrance between the building and the parking area for their black and gold patrol cars.

Addie went inside, through the lobby with its uncomfortable plastic chairs, right up to the sliding glass service window. She pushed a button on the wall, under the sign that read “Ring For Assistance.”

A young officer with her blonde hair pulled back from her face in a short ponytail came in response to the annoying buzzer sound the button produced. Addie remembered her from past visits to see Lucian here, and greeted her with a friendly wave.

“It’s Brenda, right? Hi. I’m Adair Kilorian. I think Lucian is expecting me.”

“Detective Knight is busy,” was the terse reply.
