“Maron, it’s Dufort.”

“Bonjour,” said Maron warily.

“Just wanted to check in. I was planning to let you know that Molly and I are going into business together, doing detective work, but it turns out she’s got Lyme disease. I’m not sure how long she’s going to be out of commission.”

“Sorry to hear that,” said Maron, and he meant it, although at the same time he couldn’t help feeling that with Molly out of the picture, he had a better chance of solving the Tuck mystery himself. A few good cases under his belt and that Paris posting might be his yet.

“We plan to be private investigators. We’ll be based in, but of course not limit our work to the village. Or the département, for that matter. I expect we’ll be working with you from time to time. I look forward to it.”

“As do I,” said Maron. That he did not mean. His interim appointment as chief had finally been made a full appointment, though he still depended on Dufort for help…and resented it.

“Anyway, I’ve asked Molly to socialize with her guests as much as she is able, but the last time I saw her, she could barely get out of bed. So this go ’round I’m not sure she’s going to be as much help as she usually is. How are things on your end? Do you have any leads on possibilities other than the guests at La Baraque?”

“No. If it had happened at a different time of year, then maybe we could consider other tourists. But you know how it is in Castillac in February. Nobody’s out much on these cold, gray days. There are barely any tourists at all.”

“Only takes one.”

“Sure.”

“Things with Paul-Henri going okay?”

Maron started to complain about him but caught himself. “Yes. No problems. Look, if there’s nothing else? I’ve got another call coming in—”

“Yep, talk to you later.”

Maron pushed the blinking button on his phone. “Allô, Chief Maron speaking.”

“Bonjour, Chief. This is Charles Brantley, at the American embassy in Paris.”

Maron could tell from the man’s tone that he was going to say something Maron did not want to hear. His intuition turned out to be entirely correct.
