Deadly Devotion
“After more than an hour of the chief’s incessant questions—the same questions, over and over, phrased a hundred different ways—Kate had been certain he intended to bury her.
Bury her the same way the cops had buried her dad. Or at least that’s what she’d once overheard one of her grandma’s friends say. Her dad had known things he shouldn’t have, and people of power had wanted him silenced.
Just like the chief seemed to want her silenced.
Maybe she should have insisted on a lawyer li...ke Tom had advised, but that felt too much like an admission of guilt.
Exactly what they’d been fishing for.
But they wouldn’t break her. Or stop her. If anything, their veiled threats that if Daisy had been murdered, Kate was the most likely suspect only galvanized her resolve to dig out the truth. Even if she had to fight the entire police force to do it.
She lowered her window and breathed in the air of freedom.MoreLess
