The next morning, I arrived in the office at nine o’clock sharp. “Morning,” I said, my sweeping gaze taking in Betty and Jedidiah. They returned my greeting, and Jedidiah went back to his computer, while Betty handed me a call slip and said, “Detective Scott called just as I was unlocking the office door. He says he has some good news.”

Betty eyed me with a hint of rebuke in her eyes. “Burning the midnight oil again?”

“Yes, but I’m bright-eyed and ready to begin again,” I said. I reached for the glass of milk she held out for me.

I had a fair bit of work to plow through before my appointment with Tanya, so I got right to it.

Returning Detective Scott’s call was first on my mental agenda.

“Detective Scott,” a voice met my ear before I was aware the phone had time to ring. Scott must have picked it up on the first ring.

“Came in early today,” Scott said, “and talked to some of the detectives in Homicide with a lot more time under their belts. You were right. Law enforcement can set up an appointment without having to go through all the bullshit. Seems the criminals aren’t protected from the law. I spoke to Jim Armor, who’s been in Homicide for five years or so and has made two trips to Pelican Bay. Says it’s not for the faint of heart. I’m pretty sure Lieutenant Biddle could get us in, but when I stopped in to see him, I discovered he’d gone off to some sort of training meeting today—left about ten minutes ago.”

“Thanks. I’ll give him a jingle first thing in the morning,” I said

My next call was to Sunset Cadillac. After being transferred around, I reached a man called Bill Schaefer, the quick-service manager. He pretty much confirmed my suspicion about the wiring being off but said he’d pull out a schematic that someone in my office could pick up today. I’d pick it up myself on the way to Tanya Guttenberg’s.
