Chapter 20

Suki wasn’t at her desk when Kathryn tried to call her. Kathryn had just found out that Detective Peters, and Sargent O’Donnell, of the NYPD, were coming to the Rockne Pharmaceutical offices specifically to speak with her. She quickly tried to contact Suki, to give her the heads up just in case they wanted to talk with her, too.

“Barb, I’ll be right back, I need to find Suki. If the police show up, offer them coffee and tell them I’m on my way.”

Moments later she spotted Suki, standing at a co-workers desk.

“Suki?” Kathryn called out. “Thank God you’re here. I’m sorry to interrupt, but I need to see you for a second.”

“What is it Kathryn?”

“It’s urgent. I need to see you in private.”

Suki, excused herself and walked closer to Kathryn.

“The police are coming to see me any minute, Suki. I wanted you to know in case they want to talk to you, too. I think it’s the same two gentlemen we spoke with Friday night at the hospital.”

“Do you want me to come with you?”

“No. Just be aware that they’re in the building. I’m sure someone will call if they need you. I feel nervous, Suki. Why? I’ve done nothing wrong?”

“It’ll be ok. It’s just that there resurrecting the whole night again in your head. It’s understandable. Thanks Kathryn for coming over, and don’t worry about it.”

Kathryn returned to her office, still nervous over the idea the police were returning to question her some more.

About 30 minutes later, Barbara quietly walks up to Kathryn’s desk.

“They’re here, Kathryn. Do I bring them in here?”

“Yes, I suppose so, Barbara. I don’t need a conference room. Maybe, this’ll be real quick, I hope,” she said sheepishly.

“Miss Becker? Detective Peters, and do you remember Detective O’Donnell?”

“Yes, of course. Please come in. Have a seat. May I get you gentlemen some coffee?”

“No thank you, Miss Becker.”

“Kathryn, please. It’s just Kathryn,” she said in almost a whisper.

“We appreciate you giving us this time. We just have a few questions, Miss Becker.”

“Of course, go ahead.”

“Friday, I think you told us that you did not know, Lois Stanton.”

“What? I mean who?”

“Lois Stanton, the waitress, one of the victims.”

“Oh yes, that’s right. I did not know her.”

“Did you know the young man who was shot? Or the older lady, her name was Martha Radcliffe?”

“No sir, I did not know either of them. It was just a restaurant my friend and I occasionally go to. Our office is around the corner.”

“Yes, we know, thank you,” answered Detective O’Donnell.

“And, what about the man in the trench coat? Did you know him?”

“No! Well, I don’t think I did. I never saw his face?”

“When did you first see the man in the trench coat?”

“He was standing for quite a while outside the door. Strange looking fellow.”

“You noticed him more than once? How long would you estimate he was outside the door?”

“Maybe ten minutes.”

“Ten minutes, but you didn’t see his face?”

“No. His back was to me. He was looking out toward the street.”

“Did you mention anything to your friend? Miss Suki Nikimora?”

“No.
