Chapter Fourteen
After delivering the results of the autopsies to his parents, Garret collapsed in his dad’s easy chair with a headache brewing at the base of his skull.
He could tell his father took the news hardest. “It seems I was way off base about Walker.”
“Don’t do that,” Mitch snapped. “Just because he was beaten to a pulp doesn’t make him less of an ass. Our goal now has to be finding out how he got himself and his family murdered.”
“It’s just that I was certain Walker had killed Livvy and was out there somewhere hiding. It even ran through my mind that Royce knew where he was.”
“I can’t even fathom why someone would suffocate children,” Garret muttered. Guilt spun through him like a mighty current. But he’d given his word to Hawkins that he’d keep his mouth shut about the other stuff. But maybe it didn’t count if he made a suggestion. “I think we should keep an eye on Dandridge and Baskin, make sure we keep tabs on those guys and know where they are at all times.”
“Way ahead of you,” Mitch stated. “Walsh agreed to follow Baskin. And I’ve been sitting outside Dandridge’s house every night until dawn.”
Garret found the energy to get to his feet. “Why didn’t you say something? There are three of us. We should take turns so one person doesn’t burn out.”
“I’ve only been at it for the last four nights. The evening I decided to do it, Mom, Dad, and Jackson were in Nags Head with Tessa for Ryan’s funeral and you’d gone out to the preserve to see if you could locate any shell casings leftover from the shots fired there.”
“That excuse won’t cut it. I’ve been back for days,” Jackson said, sending a cool look toward his brother. “You could’ve said something. I’m happy to take my turn at watching either one of those men make a mistake.”
“Thanks but I have it covered. Besides, I’ve nothing else to do with my nights.” Mitch bobbed his head toward Jackson. “You’ve got Tessa. Garret’s in the process of pursuing Anniston. Me? I’m free and clear to play detective for as many hours as it takes.”
Garret paced in front of the window. “We’ve offered to help. I’m begging for something to do. Otherwise I’ll go crazy.” He angled toward his dad. “Surely there’s a project you’ve been wanting to start? I need to do something, anything at all. I can still handle a saw or a paintbrush.”
“That’s not a bad idea,” Tanner said. “I could use something to do myself. A couple of months back your mother bugged the hell out of me to build her some shelves in the utility room. That was July and too damn hot to think about starting such a job in closed quarters. But now…”
Lenore set aside her knitting. “You three could practice on the songs you intend to play at the memorial service. Putting it off won’t do any good. We’re just waiting for the medical examiner to…” She couldn’t finish the last part.
