“Yes, that and we now have a suspect.” John gestured at the screen. “This looks to me like masked insider trading, or maybe money laundering. Roger deposited a certain amount into Malone’s account. Malone then used that money to invest in something illegal like smuggling or what have you, then paid Roger back with interest.”

“That would explain why neither of them suffered during the recession.”

“What?” Ruby stared at him for a long moment before she realized the unlikely truth. “Are you making a joke?”

John chuckled and grabbed his hat. “Come on. I’ll drive.”

“You are full of surprises, Chief Miller.” Ruby grinned as she fell into step behind him. “Let’s hope they’re mostly pleasant ones.
