“No way in hell.” Deck clenched his stubbled jaw like Olivia had just offered herself up as a ritual sacrifice. “Not after the way he treated you yesterday. He scared you.”

Though she couldn’t argue with that last part, Olivia groaned, side-eyeing JB. She’d need his help to convince Deck she could get Graham to fess up whatever secrets he’d been keeping.

“I think Doctor Rockwell has a point. Bauer loathes the both of us. She’ll certainly get further than we will, City Boy.”

“You can’t be serious.” Will directed his words at his partner, but Olivia felt every single one of them like a barb to the skin. “You want a civilian to interrogate a possible murder suspect who just happens to be a cop himself? Are you sure those blood pressure pills aren’t messing with your head?”

“She is a psychologist. Talking is practically in the job description.”

Sensing a turn of the tide, Olivia heaped on her reassurances. “It’s not an interrogation, Deck. Just a conversation. For whatever reason, Graham trusts me. He came to me for help last night. Besides, you and JB will be close by if anything goes wrong.”

“When something goes wrong.”

“Are you worried I’ll do a better job than you?”

JB cackled. “Of course he is.”

“Fine. We’ll see about that.” Deck looked her dead in the eyes, his glinting in the sunlight like he couldn’t decide whether to chastise her or kiss her senseless. “You’ve got five minutes. Then let the professionals take over.”
