Chapter 15

Sleepwalker

It was too late for us to speak to anyone else in private. I thought about bringing up the subject of General Shilova’s murder at the dinner table, but Anneka believed it best to keep quiet, eat Lenya’s stew, and let the others speak openly.

Dropping the remains of the general in Arrowhead seemed to be universally approved. No one liked Shilova and none would miss him. I imagined everyone at the table had a motive to kill the man. Of course, no one jumped up and yelled, “I killed the bastard, and I’m glad I did!” That only happens in novels, not in real life.

I noticed Izabela didn’t eat much, despite regarding Lenya as an excellent cook. However, I consumed more than my portion of stew. He put big chunks of beef, carrots, potatoes, and onions with a thick brown gravy. Once Izabela walked off, I nudged Anneka.

Before coming to dinner, Anneka and I had devised a plan to get the truth from Izabela. Anneka would take her outside and question her about the lie she told about sleeping throughout the night. Meanwhile, I would go through the woman’s luggage. So, we bided our time until the meal was nearly over.
