Chapter 12

"Let me help you up."

"I'd appreciate that."

"Maybe I hit you a little too hard."

"I think you did."

"Here. Just sit down here right on the couch. I'll get you a couple of aspirin. I mean, I'll bet your head hurts."

"I suppose your husband's gone?"

"He's afraid—I've never seen him like this. Somebody's trying to kill him, I think."

"Who?"

She just shook her head.

"I want you to tell me who was out at the Brindle farm with your husband this afternoon."

"I don't know."

She put her hand out as if to touch me, then stopped herself. "I'll get you those aspirin."

The dog lapped my face all the time Eve McNally was gone, big slurpy dog kisses and hard killer dog breath. When Eve returned, she handed me a glass of water, then dropped two aspirin tablets into my palm and then shooed Sara away.
