Kirby was the unlucky sucker in Lottie’s line of fire when she returned to the office.

‘I want that background check on Maurice Connolly like yesterday, and draw up a warrant for his funeral home. He is fishy as fuck.’

‘Fishy as fuck? Don’t think any judge will grant a warrant on those grounds. It’d never hold up in court.’ Kirby’s attempt at humour soured Lottie’s face, and he quickly added, ‘I’ve just pulled what I could find on him. He was on PULSE and—’

‘He what?’ Lottie swivelled on the ball of her foot and flew towards his desk.

‘Yeah, three years ago. A complaint was made about him, but he was never arrested or charged because the complaint was dropped.’

‘What sort of complaint?’

‘Get this… Interfering with a corpse.’

She fell into a chair. ‘What in the name of…? But you know something, Kirby? I can believe it. He gives me the creeps. Who made the complaint?’

‘This is where it gets interesting. Jacinta Nally.’

‘The mother of the Alfie kid who found Naomi’s body? I better talk to her again. Does it say why the complaint was dropped?’

‘No.’

‘Was it even investigated?’

‘It was withdrawn on the same day.’

‘Jacinta Nally works as a carer. What’s her phone number?’

Kirby found it. ‘She works for Dream Care. They run nursing homes throughout the county.’ He googled them. ‘They have an office and sheltered accommodation in a building close to that doctor’s surgery across the road from the funeral home.’

Lottie had her phone to her ear as she flew out the door.
