Excerpt

“Hey!” he protested.

She popped the fruit in her mouth. “I’m eating for three,” she said around the mouthful. She crawled across the bed until she was in the middle.

Matt sent her a mock glare and carved off another slice.

“So, are we gonna talk about it?” she prompted.

Carson swiped a hand over his head. “You don’t need any needless stress.”

Nathalie merely folded her hands over her belly. “It will stress me more not knowing what’s going on.”

Carson glared at Matt. He smiled, a wedge of apple between his teeth. “You and I will have words later,” he promised.

“I want to know why anyone would be watching us?” Nathalie said, hoping to diffuse the tension. “Our last few cases have been routine.”

Matt tossed the apple core in the trash, then grabbed another apple. He sat on the bed facing Nathalie. “What about that guy who called wanting help with finding the contents of his safety deposit box?”

“What guy?” Carson demanded.

Matt carved off three slices, handed them to Nathalie.  “Um. right. It’s probably at the bottom of the inbox in Nathalie’s office.”

Carson swung his gaze to her.

She waved an apple slice as if to fend off the glare. “Things were a little jumbled while you were in the hospital.”

“So, tell me about it now.” There was a distinct bite in his words.

“The client,” she bit off a corner, “can’t remember his name right now. Said he needed to find the contents of his box which were stolen during the robbery.”

“And the contents?”

“A gun, a set of keys, a thumb drive and a stick of gum,” Matt picked up the narrative.

“A stick of gum?” Carson echoed.

“I thought it was weird too.”

Nathalie shifted on the bed, trying to peer in the tray on the dresser. “Is there any cheddar over there?”

Carson, who was closest, picked up the tray and set it within Nathalie’s reach. “If you eat too fast, you’ll get heartburn again,” he cautioned.

“As long as I don’t drink anything for a half hour after,” she retorted.

“Did you look into the client?” Carson popped a grape into his mouth.

No one spoke.

“Well?”

Nathalie plucked at the sheets. “After, Sam.” Tears bubbled and slid. “After you were sick, we didn’t do any more research. What cases Sterling hasn’t been able to handle he’s either subcontracted or they’ve been sitting on our desks. Waiting.”

Excerpt

Chapter One

 

Click-click-click. The shutter did its thing from the camera with the long-range lens. The man with his eye to the viewfinder peered over the Nikon, before moving it back into position.

“Are you sure this is something you want to do?” he asked his companion, a sleek man with dark spiked hair, a trim mustache and goatee. He folded slim, soft hands; black ink adorned the knuckles as he set his hands in his lap.

“We have a score to settle,” he answered in a voice thick with some Eastern European accent. Maybe Russian? “They interfered with what was mine.”

“I don’t see how taking a bunch of photos at a gravesite is going to get us closer to them,” the photographer grumbled.

The photographer, one Cory Grant, studied the three people standing in a snow-covered cemetery. Two men and a very pregnant woman. Even from this distance he could see she was about to pop. Somehow the black parka she wore stretched to accommodate the belly. Her hair and her lower face were covered by a blue and black checked hat and scarf. The only spots of color on her. To her left a man with long dirt brown dreadlocks. He, too, was wearing a hat and scarf, but black to match the long wool dress coat. Even the leather gloves on his hands were black. To the woman’s right, another man his features were hidden by a dark fedora with a jaunty little feather at the crown. His coat was a charcoal gray, and the raised collar hid the bottom of his face. From this angle he couldn’t see the man’s hands, gloved or otherwise.

“Do you know who they are?” Cory glanced over his shoulder.

“They’re a bunch of fucking detectives!” he spat. “They walked into my shop pretending to be something else. He,” the sleek man stabbed a finger at the one with the dreads, “shut down my tattoo parlor. And I still have to pay child support.”

Cory pursed his lips. Having Matt—at least he thought that was the man with the dreads—close down Igor’s, his backseat companion, tattoo parlor wasn’t a huge loss. Igor was a terrible artist unless he was doing his own ink and then he was a veritable Picasso.

“Now how am I supposed to wash my money?” Igor demanded. “SShella was supposed to abort the little bastard. Instead, she has him and I’m supposed to take care of it? That lousy cocksucker Nick was to get rid of the kid. He botches that.

“I still don’t think taking on these detectives is wise. Especially Matt.”

Igor snatched Cory by the scruff of the neck and shoved his face in his. “I do not pay you to think. I pay you to act. They have suffered a loss. They,” he waved a hand to indicate the pregnant woman and Matt, “a baby anytime. They will be too distracted to pay me attention.”

Igor released Cory, allowing the man to fall into the footwell. Cory snatched up the camera, which had fallen, and anxiously checked it over.

He released an aggravated breath. The lens and the camera were fine. He glared at Igor. “I don’t give a fuck who you are. You break my camera and I’ll kick your ass.”

Igor laughed. “Is that what you’re upset about. A fucking camera?”

Cory ignored him and went back to staring at the trio.

“Who died?”
