“We’re vacationing in Crested Butte for a week,” McGinty said. “Mary Ann’s at the art museum this morning.”
“Do you have email?” Seth asked.
“Mary Ann does,” McGinty said. “She’s on that thing every day.”
“Phone?”
McGinty nodded.
“Landline?”
“You mean one of those portable cancer causers?” McGinty asked. “No thank you. I prefer to get my cancer the good old-fashioned way – fighting for Uncle Sam.”
He smiled and Seth chuckled.
“How ‘bout this? I’ll call you every evening,” Seth said. “Until your cruise.”
“You think you can solve this by the end of the month?”
“I can try.”
McGinty nodded and they got on the elevator. They rose to the first floor before McGinty said, “I sure hope you do.”
“Why?” Seth asked. “Why this case?”
“The guy gets away with it,” McGinty said. “Twenty, thirty, fifty . . . a hundred murders. He kills and walks away. Every time. He walks away. It . . . pisses me off.”
As if on cue, the elevator doors opened to the first floor.
“It’s about time,” Maresol yelled from the kitchen. “Your rellenos are getting cold.”
Seth nodded to McGinty and followed him out of the elevator.
