TUESDAY MORNING DAWNED cold and clear. Cat wandered downstairs to check the answering machine.

The first message was Jake’s from last night. Cat fought down a wave of irritation. Jerk.

The next message was from Mike. Apologizing – endlessly. Or rather, it would have been endlessly if the machine hadn’t cut him off. Cat had almost made her mind up to just erase the rest without listening in case they were just more from him, but she changed her mind when Holly’s voice came on the line.

“Cat, are you all right? I’m so sorry! I can’t believe my dad is being such a fricking ass! Anyway, I’ll bring by your check tomorrow morning and we can talk. We can cruise down to Denver if you like. I’ve got the whole day off.”

The machine beeped again.

“This is Brownstown Movers calling for Cat Turner. We understand that you’re scheduled to meet with us at the property owned by Mr. Ned Thornton Thursday afternoon. We’ve had a change of schedule and would like to move the time up to 10:00 A.M. Tuesday. Please call and let us know if that will work for you at 303-555-4828.”

Beep.

“Catherine, it’s me… Brad. I’m… worried about you. You haven’t returned my calls, and your e-mail was so… cold. I really want to see you, see if we can work things out. Please call me back.”

If you’d take it to Rowan’s Auto Body they’ll do an excellent job on the repairs for you at no charge. Also, my wife and I would be honored if you and Raphael would join us this evening for dinner at Roberto’s Restaurant in Denver. There are a number of things we’d like to discuss. Please call my secretary and let her know if you’ll be available.”

Cat checked the clock. It was already eight o’clock. Damn. She didn’t know if the mover’s office would be open yet, but it was worth a shot. She rushed over to the phone and dialed the number. The woman on the other end picked up the phone on the first ring.

“This is Cat Turner, you left a message on my aunt’s answering machine.”

“Yes, Ms. Turner. We’ve had a cancellation on the schedule and were hoping you might be able to meet us at the Thornton residence today rather than when it was initially scheduled. I realize it’s short notice – “

“Actually, today would be fine. What time would you like me to be there?”

“Is ten too soon?”

She nodded and scribbled the time on the pad next to the phone. “Ten will be fine.”

“Oh, good. I’ll tell our people to expect you.”

Cat hung up the phone and hurried upstairs to pull on a pair of worn jeans and a sweatshirt over thick socks and warm boots. She didn’t want to wear anything good, because once the movers were done she was going to start in on cleaning the place. Yeah, she
