CHAPTER ELEVEN

Charles knocked on the backdoor of the Jericho County Police Department and Brent opened it to let him inside. Charles then motioned for Jenay, who was seated in his parked Jaguar, and she got out and went in with him.

They were in the basement of the county jail, and Brent was escorting them to an interrogation room he used on the most violent of suspects. Which meant, in Jericho, it was rarely used. But he could justify it this time. Eddie Dorgin had pulled a gun on his father. The DA would understand.

Robert Sinatra, Charles second-youngest son, had come over when he heard the news. As mayor of Jericho, he often got information before the general public did. The case of the man pulling a gun on his father in a public place reached him in record time.

Robert smiled his charming smile. “I see he didn’t kill you,” he said.

Charles smiled too. “That asshole? Not a chance!”

“Hey, Ma,” Robert said as he and Jenay hugged. “I heard you were there too.”

“I was,” Jenay said, still a little shaken. “But your father, as usual, handled it perfectly.”

“Who is this guy?” Robert asked.

“Somebody I used to know,” Jenay said.

“He bought up half of Eye Sore, making him our new partner whether we wanted it or not. I told him no thanks, and he didn’t like it.”

“But that’s not why you asked me to hold him for you,” Brent said. “Now is it, Pop?”

Charles exhaled. Both of his sons could see the strain on his face. “No, it isn’t. I’m just trying to connect the dots, because there’s a connection.”

“Between what?” Robert asked, deeply curious.

“Between all the shit that happened last week.”

“You mean the guy who shot up your house?” Robert asked.

“And before that, what his son tried to do to my child, yes,” Charles said. “I think it’s all connected.”

“But how, Pop?” Robert asked. “They just seem like random happenings to me. You know how the people around here feel about you. They’re always pulling shit on us.”

“That’s what I said,” Jenay said.

But Charles was shaking his head. “Not like this,” he said. “No. Not like this.” Then he looked at Brent. “Ready?” he asked him.

“You guys can wait in my office,” Brent said to Jenay and Robert. “Pop won’t be long.”

Robert smiled. “They’re getting rid of us, Ma,” he said. “But come on. We’re both more popular around him than either one of them. Let’s get a drink.”

“The only drink you’re getting in my police department is coffee,” Brent said. “I don’t care who you are.”

Robert and Jenay laughed. And headed down the hall. But Jenay looked back at Charles. He looked so worried that it worried her.
