There’s no way she could figure out how to get to the bottom of the “Author Contacts” case. She sighed. It was just like them, thinking she was just a two-bit hack detective not fit to wipe her shoes on the doormat of a police department. She’d show them.

She opened it, ruffling through it. Everything was there. “Get out of here, Frank”, she said, “You sicken me”. With the information she needed under wraps, it was time to start the case.

A couple of bum leads and she was ready for a cold martini. Staring at the computer screen in the dim light, the lightning flashing behind her, she stubbed out her cigar.
