Crime & Passion Stalk City Hall Series

Markie paced the hospital hall, waiting for word from Captain Tomie about Bryce. Yes, she knew his injuries were minor, but she still needed to see him to make sure. She'd been seconds too late to the scene. In fact, she was about to climb into the back of the ambulance when the captain shot out, shut the door, and slapped his palm against the metal, indicating the ambulance should go. 


As for Bryce's house, that was a total loss. All his hard work for nothing. 


Her gut clenched. Deep down she knew this wasn't an accident. Someone set off that explosion. Who would do such a thing, want to...a quiver raked through her nearly knocking her off her feet...who would want to kill Bryce and why?
