Tori found that amusing.

“So my husband and everyone keeps telling me. This only gives you more to hit him with in questioning. This can get you a way to bring him in.”

She was aware.

“It’s looking like my theory was right,” Genesis admitted. “Someone got cocky.”

It appeared.

Tori hated that she might be losing this bet.

“When are you going to try to get him in?” she asked.

Genesis already had a plan.

“I’m going to bring him in tomorrow. I need to keep this low-key, and off the radar of the media and the judge. I want to make sure I have everything before he can slip away. I’m sure he’s behind this, and I want to have everything to go at him. I’m getting one shot at this.”

Tori said nothing, which surprised her.

“What?” Genesis asked.

“It feels off. I’m not saying he’s not doing something sketchy, but my gut says we’re missing something.”

Genesis was going to be working for her, so she had a fine line to walk between arrogant detective and good investigator.

“Okay, let’s keep digging for the rest of today and see what we can net.”

Tori appreciated that.

This wasn’t going to be cut and dry.

Cases never were.

What were the chances this one was?

Tori looked at her watch, and she knew that they needed to keep moving.

“Let’s go get Bishop. She’s had plenty of time to molest her pirate. We have more people to interview. I don’t think missing one is going to help us.”

On that, she agreed.

Genesis was a ‘cover your bases’ kind of girl.

“I’ll meet you at the car. Let me just pass this off to the ME, and I’ll be back.”

Tori headed away.

Genesis moved toward the man who was running the scene, and she handed him the evidence bag with the phone back in it.

“You can have this back,” she said. “I appreciate the sneak peek at it.”

Will grinned.

“How do you feel about movies?” he asked. “I was thinking for our first date, we’d go and see a film. Maybe dinner, and then drinks.”

God.

She felt bad.
