Chapter 23

“Then one of them should have heard something. It’s hard to be quiet about cracking a skull, I’d think.”

“Good point.”

“Were either of them carrying a beer bottle?”

Kev shook his head. “Not that I saw. The woman could have had one in her purse, I suppose, if she was planning on killing him.”

“What did she look like?”

“Long black hair with red highlights. She was wearing a teal or green cocktail dress.”

“That doesn’t ring any bells,” Neil said.

“Didn’t with me, either. For sure she wasn’t anyone I saw dancing with Zeke. Not that I was watching him every second.”

“I…kept an eye on him.” Neil grimaced. “I don’t remember a woman who matches her description.” He tapped his fingers together. “I wish we knew what Zeke’s wife looked like. It could have been her and she wasn’t really going into the restroom but was waiting by it until the coast was clear.”
