Excerpt
“I
woke up a week ago,” she said, “in a motel room and didn’t know
who I was or how I’d gotten there.”
She ran
her fingers through her hair and winced. The first piece of Blondie’s
puzzle slipped into place. I’ll switch to decaf for a week if I’m
wrong.
“Were
you hurt” I asked, already knowing her answer.
“I had
a mother of a goose egg on the side of my head and a headache from
hell, but nothing serious.”
Yes!
Concussion. Drinking decaf is like trying to catch a buzz on grape
juice. Where’s the kick?
She
paused and I thought I’d have to nudge her again, then she spoke,
“But I was covered in blood.”
Now
we’re getting somewhere.
“Not
yours?” I verified.
“No,
not mine.” She stared hard into her coffee mug as though
enlightenment swam in the blackness.
“Whose?”
I asked, expecting her to give me her pat “I don’t know” answer
again.
She
cleared her throat, her voice weak and trembling, “Probably the
dead man’s in the bed next to me.”
Shock
slammed into me so hard I would have fallen flat on my ... if I
wasn’t already sitting on it.
