Ridge sat in the overstuffed chair reading over the reports he’d picked up at the police station. He leaned forward and rested his elbows on his knees. Tizzy’s reaction to his questions had not been what he’d expected. But then again he’d handled the meeting poorly. With her, his ‘A’ game was always off. The last thing he’d wanted to do was hurt her. He should have told her he believed her, if he did or not. The truth was…he did believe her. He had too.

He crossed the hall to the kitchen, opened the fridge, took out a beer and popped the top. Strolling out to the front porch, he sat down on the swing. He could hear both of them in the back yard. The squeak of the swing going back and forth, as Tizzy pushed, and the sweet voice of Gracie singing, if you’re happy in your nose, clap your hands, if you’re happy in your nose, clap your hands. Ridge smiled.

Just about the time he thought of making another attempt to talk to her, Bubba’s patrol car pulled into the drive. He got out and ambled up to the porch. “You won’t believe this, but the perp from the bar, just died.”

Ridge rose to his feet. “Not possible. The gunshot wound wasn’t life threatening. I thought he was going to be transported to jail tomorrow.”

“Yeah. Well, he didn’t die from the gunshot. Apparently, he died from a heart attack. I guess twenty-plus years of drug use will put you in an early grave. I’m going to the hospital to take care of some paperwork, thought you might like to come.”

“Yeah, just give me a minute to get my badge and gun.”
