Lucy wasn’t lying about her lawyer. He got Bridget out on her own recognizance. Of course, it was also a small town, and Bridget was the judge’s bookkeeper, and it was two days before taxes were due. And she was pregnant, and nobody wanted to see her behind bars.

But everyone thought she was guilty.

“Hormones,” the judge said as an aside to the clerk at the bail hearing, and the clerk nodded back to him.

I didn’t think any amount of hormones were necessary to kill Bradford Blythe. He had been a royal bastard. After Bridget was released, Lucy and I brought her home, tucked her into bed, gave her a mug of hot chocolate, and handed her her laptop after she insisted that she needed to work.

“You’ve been training for this moment your whole life,” Lucy told me as we sat on Bridget’s bed, drinking hot chocolate.

“I have?”

“You’re going to solve this mystery. You have to find the killer, and get the fuzz off of Bridget.”

“Oh, would you do that, Gladie? That would make me so happy,” Bridget said, smiling for the first time in hours.

I swallowed. “I’ll try,” I said. Normally, I would have jumped at solving a mystery. But the pressure was terrible. What if I let Bridget down and she wound up in jail?

“You can do this,” Lucy said. “And happy birthday, darlin’. I guess we’ll have to celebrate later.” She handed me a wrapped gift, which smelled strongly of an expensive perfume.

“Thank you, Lucy.”

“It’s French. Enjoy.”
