Chapter 14: No Deal
I took the page out of his hand.
Then I walked up the dock to the deck, where forty people were still pretending to eat.
"Can I borrow your pen?" I asked the old man in the captain's hat.
He handed it over.
I wrote across the top of the page, in big letters, so every y had a hook on it.
Ask Kendra why the boat stopped.
Then I folded it in half and walked it back to the lawyer.
"Tell him that's my answer," I said. "And tell him the detectives will want a copy. I'm sending them one."
The smile went off his face.
"Ms. Pettengill, I'd think very carefully..."
"I did," I said. "For ten months. Good night."
He went back up to his black car.
On the deck, the old man in the captain's hat put out his hand for his pen.
"Keep it," he said, when I gave it back. "No. Give it here. That's a good pen."
The woman detective came out the next morning and took the page and the lawyer's card.
She read it twice.
"Well," she said. "That's going in the file."
"Is it illegal?"
"It's close enough that he'll wish he hadn't."
