CHAPTER THIRTY

Hiram met twice with the family lawyers. When the legal dust had settled, Todd’s new bank account was inflated by twelve million dollars.

On the way home he said, “The lawyers tell me I’ll have to get an investment counselor.”

“How do you think your life will change?” Todd asked.

“Really, I’m going to keep living the way I am until I get to be eighteen. Maybe the money will grow a little. Then I’ll decide what I want to do and where I want to go. Possibly I could be the richest cop in the Midwest.”

“You’d better rethink that career choice. It’s not like on TV and the movies.”

“I’ve been given a real gift with that money. Now it’s time I gave something instead of being just a troublesome teen. Maybe a cop; maybe something else. I don’t really know, but I’ll have four years to decide.”

From Todd’s point of view he was very glad he had solved that case. However, there was much still unsolved. After his one trip, Mitch Everson wasn’t even able financially to leave Charleston to come up to Indiana. Todd checked with his employer, and there had been no periods of absences. Maybe it is difficult to really know if anyone can kill, but Todd’s short association with Everson told him the guy had not come up to Calypso and killed Ma, Walt, or the Sheriff. Those crimes were still unsolved, in addition to the murder of Billy Jessup that had led Todd to Calypso.

On the trip back, Todd and Hiram made a deal that Todd would not tell anyone about the money. In general both of them would say that Hiram had found his father, and now the kid was back in Calypso to continue his own life. End of story.
