Chapter 481: Most Prolifically Deadly Town In America

I hated to burst the bubble of happy, but there were so many questions left. Including a dead body we had, as yet, to tie to a murder suspect.

"Can Geoffrey's death be linked to any of this?" I glanced at Jill who looked lost on our company suddenly, like a little girl wearing daddy's clothes and pretending she fit in so she wouldn't be sent to bed and miss the grown up stuff. Yup, got all of that from the near terrified expression she let loose before smothering it with her best attempt at pulling a Liz. Didn't make it to cool confident, but at least didn't look like she was going to throw up.

"I don't know," Jill said, voice soft and low. "I'm working on it, but my hands have been tied."

"Council," Vivian growled. "It's not your fault, Jill. Clearly there is Patterson interest behind keeping Geoffrey's killer a secret."
