Chapter 10

Before Georgie went to find Aleta, she took some time to explore the entire area that the movie crew had spread out over. The sun was already directly overhead making the place look cheery and highly charged. Even if the set was several yards away, when Robbie yelled, “Quiet on the set!” the whole place came to a standstill.

Not wanting to draw attention to herself, Georgie froze, too—watching people, their expressions, their body language. Since Jason’s removal from the area, there was a calm that had seemed to settle over everything.

“If I could just get a couple of people to talk, but I’ll bet they aren’t going to have much to say to an eccentric old lady who is asking morbid questions about the producer who died on the set.” She shook her head. “I’ll just look like a crazy lady.”

Snapping her fingers Georgie headed toward the Craft Service trailer. But before she got there she caught a glimpse of her sister standing out of the way near the set they had watched the previous day.

Planted firmly in the middle of the scene was Dustin Stetson. He stood perfectly still as a woman with a box of make-up came and brushed his forehead with a make-up sponge. He spoke quietly with Robbie who had gotten up from his director’s chair and put a gentle hand on Dustin’s shoulder. Their conversation was private but obviously positive as Dustin patted Robbie’s shoulder before they repeated the shot.

That was interesting enough. But what Georgie couldn’t help but notice was Dustin’s eyes finding her sister and giving her a playful wink. This made Georgie smile, partially because she loved to see her sister so happy, but also because poor Dustin had no idea that he’d never do anything more than look at Aleta. She had room for only one love in her life and right now that one love was her independence. She wouldn’t give that up for all the tea in China. On the other hand, there wasn’t a woman worth her salt who didn’t appreciate the occasional flirt session with a handsome fellow—Dustin was very handsome.

Carefully and quietly Georgie tiptoed over to Aleta and gently elbowed her star-struck sister.

“Is Stan coming?” Aleta whispered.

“No. He says there’s not enough evidence.”

“That’s too bad,” Aleta replied in a hushed voice—her eyes didn’t leave the lighting crew that was continually adjusting things high above the set. “This is really fascinating. You wouldn’t believe how they change the lights to make it look like it’s certain times of the day. Dustin has to stand still for the entire time. If he has to move to go to the bathroom, or take a break, a guy who is his same height and weight, wearing the same kind of clothes, comes and stands there until he comes back.”

“Wow!”

“I don’t know about you, but I’d really like to stay until tonight to see how the rest of the scenes are done.”

“Yeah. I’m going to go over to Craft Service.
