The Elevator Murders

“If the killer is someone they knew…” Kirk took a long drink of his beer. “He…comes up with some reason for them to meet him at their place. Like, yeah, ‘Let’s have a nooner’.”


“That would mean the killer is a woman,” Pat said.


“Or the victims were all gay,” Kirk countered.


“They weren’t,” Tony told him. “Or at least two of them weren’t. I know that for a fact.”


Greg grinned. “You came on to them and they shot you down?”


Tony feinted a blow at him, muttering, “No, asshole. I was friends with the last victim, and I’d talked with the second one enough to know he was straight, too. Besides which, don’t you think the reporters would have had a field day if they found out they were all gay?”


“True,” Greg agreed. “So the killer’s a woman.”


“Or her pissed off boyfriend,” Pat said.
