PRESENT DAY

THE SUN’S GOLDEN RAYS FILTERED through the grey drapes and hit Raven in the face like a hammer. She winced in the light and buried her head under a satin-covered pillow, hoping she could get a few more hours’ rest. It couldn’t possibly be later than nine.

She was almost asleep when Levac’s ringtone began blaring from her phone. She growled in frustration and rolled over to glare at the black Sony with its pink aluminum case. The case had been a gift from Aspen and she just couldn’t bring herself not to use it.

She ran her thumb over the screen. “This better be important, Rupe.”

“Good afternoon to you, too, sunshine,” Levac replied.

Raven sat up, spilling the covers and her stuffed Tigger to the floor. “Afternoon?”

She could hear Levac’s smile. “Yup, the bells are ringing noon, partner and Frost is screaming for an update. Are you going to grace us with your presence sometime today?”

“Damn. Yeah, let me get cleaned up and I’ll be in.”

“Hey, before you go get all gussied up, Frost was asking about a lake district fire early this morning,” Levac said. “Aspen sent me a text to stay mum, but I don’t actually know anything.”

Raven stood and padded toward her bathroom. “It’s probably safest that way, Rupe. It was vampire shit connected to our case, but I’m still working out the details. Why does Frost even care? It’s a fire marshal issue.”

Levac paused and she suspected he was leaning down behind his desk. He did that when he didn’t want Frost to notice him. “I don’t know, but he came through here like a hurricane asking for you and if I knew anything about a fire.”

“Marvelous. I’ll be in as soon as I can.”

Raven tossed the phone aside and turned the shower on as hot as she could stand it. It was going to be one of those days.
