Stevens panted heavily, chest heaving, as he glared at Deacon.…

Deacon silently berated himself, pacing slowly back and forth. A loud group of seven lawyers passed by rather close to them, talking animatedly about past cases, both won and lost.

“What?” Dino leaned over the desk, taking out a pair of reading glasses as he did so. “Right there. Look!” There was a dotted line on the floor, indicating a small trapdoor. “At one time, the theater and the florist were part of the Army base. They each had a passage to a bomb shelter.…

“Yeah, in the safe. I don’t see the point, Deacon. It’s over.” “I don’t know, curiosity, I guess. I want to know how they did it. How did they get in and out of the theater like they did?” “We’ll drive over in a bit and have a look. Cindy’s helping Kacy right now. They…

“Nancy and I have been really worried about you two. We tried repeatedly to call the house, but got no answer. I finally decided to call up there, and see if you’d moved. We’ve been sick with worry!” “Ev, I’m so sorry. A lot’s happened since you left.” Deacon brought him up to date on…

He sat dejectedly, his head in his hands. The rest of them sat around in silence. Deacon went back to an idea that had been bothering him for several minutes. “Why would the kid, Obi, work against his mom? It makes no sense. His mom and grandmother love that flower shop.
