Her pulse quickened. They think she did it?

“Nope, not this time.”

Zach pulled into a spot, set the brake and opened his door in one motion. Kyle had actually beaten him here.

His spirits rose a little. “Kyle.” He held out his hand.

His friend took it and they shook and hugged. “So tell me the story.”

“Maybe you should hear it from Grace.”

“And how do you know Grace?”

“Lors rented her garage apartment to her.”

“I’m still not getting the connection.”

“Always eager to bust my chops aren’t you?”

Kyle’s white smile brightened an otherwise bleak morning. “You bet.”

Zach didn’t bother with the front desk. He knew Grace would be stewing in an interrogation room. Josh Warren stopped him before he entered.

“Where do you think you’re going?”

“To see Grace.”

“She’s asked for a lawyer.”

“And I have one for her.”

Josh eyed Kyle. “He can go in.”
