Riley was right about the first four photos Dillon took of Kelli’s bedroom using the camera’s built-in flash.

“The flash makes ’em pop out like cold air on a warm nipple,” Fanny says.

“Makes what pop out?” I ask.

She points to an area on the right side of the photo. “Right here. See that tiny light burst?”

“Yes.”

“That’s light, reflecting off a miniature camera lens. And see this one up here?”

“Yes?”

“That’s another one.”

“You’re certain?”

“Of course. I used to install surveillance equipment for the CIA.”

“I seriously doubt that.”

“You can call and ask them. Central Insurance Agency. Two-forty Eddington Street, Montpelier, Vermont.”

“Oh.”

“Want their number?”

“No. But if you’re right about the cameras—”

“Yes?”

“You can keep your job.”

“Oh, goody.”

“For now.”

“How about a raise?”

“Don’t press your luck.”

“What if I tell you something else?”

“Like what?”

“Like—what’s your client’s name?”

“Riley Freeman.”

“What if I told you these cameras have nothing to do with Riley?”

“What do you mean? They have everything to do with her.”

“You’re focusing on your case.”

“That’s my job.”

“I agree. Which is why you need me.”

“I’m waiting,” I say.

“You’re not seeing the bigger picture. There’s more going on here.”

“Tell me.”

“This isn’t the work of teenagers.” Fanny says.

“No?”

“This is a professional installation. It took time. My guess, these cameras have been in place for a long time.”

“What, exactly are you saying?”

“Someone’s been spying on Kelli. And probably for a long time. You might find a video of Riley Freeman being assaulted, but Kelli’s a victim, too.”

I point at one of the photos. “This camera’s directly above Kelli’s bed?”

“Sure is.”

“And this one covers her dressing area.”

“Yup.”

Dillon and I look at each other.

He shrugs.

I say, “How big a raise were you looking for?”
