SIXTEEN

DORIE WAS QUIET on the drive back, glancing at Meg often.

Finally Meg said, “I know you’re watching me. What are you thinking?”

“You’re taking this all in stride, but I’m thinking it doesn’t pass the smell test.”

“I understand what Miranda alluded to. Lena’s murder involves that church, but there’s more to it, something bigger,” Meg said.

“What could be bigger than murder?” Dorie said.

“More than one murder, organized crime, she said. What about organized crime? Gambling. Drug trafficking. What could it be?

“You know I can smell a dead mouse ten minutes before it dies. That church has always bothered me, but I couldn’t tell you anything specific.”

“I thought we were going to have a nice hot lunch in a cozy spot,” Dorie laughed. “I was a little disappointed.”

Meg giggled. “Me too. How shallow are we? At first I was disappointed in the cold cuts, then when I knew Tom was supposed to be there and left, that was a second disappointment.”

“Please be careful,” Dorie said. “Use your good judgement. Don’t put yourself in a situation where you might be in danger.”

“Don’t worry about me. I’m pretty much a chicken when it comes to danger. Don’t you remember me turning around in that spook house you drug me to at the Halloween carnival?”

They laughed, but she was cringing and had no intention of telling Dorie about being rammed near Rusk Farm.
