When I left here yesterday, after
sitting on your couch, my trou-

say. Later, on one of Mr. Cum-

this is that unforeseen thing you’ve

she said.
“So much that if someone had
poisoned them you would have felt
vindictive?” His voice was flat,
and he- didn’t even look up from
jotting things down in his note-
book.
"That's as hypothetical as your
question,” Charlotte said. She
smiled pleasantly at the lieutenant.
Abruptly he picked up his hat.
- “Come again,” Charlotte said.
'I will." The door closed behind
him.
She stood there, and fear flooded
her body. Fear, swirling in her
stomach, pumping through her
chest, blacking out her brain.
