It Takes a Photographer

Rory nodded in agreement. “What other info do we have for him?”


“The usual. He works for an accounting firm. Parents deceased. No siblings. Moved here from Nashville in 2004. No reason given. Owned a house until the divorce. We can presume the wife got it as part of the settlement. She is getting fairly large alimony payments from him.”


“Makes me wonder if she was the person he was strangling.”


“Why would she be visiting him? All right, never mind. Women do strange things at times.”


Rory laughed. “That was a rather chauvinistic statement.”


Gideon chuckled as he got offline and shut down the computer. “Then I revise it and say that people, male andfemale, do strange things, especially when it comes to those they love—or loved.” His expression darkened momentarily before he smiled. “I’m a prime example of that. Or I was until I met Cole.”


“I’m sure we’ve all had our moments. Anyway, thanks for your help. I’ll let Lou know what you found out, and he can take it from there.”
