Death of a Survivalist
Page 16
“I’m not complaining. You saved my life. Anyway, he’s likely to recover and stand trial for two killings.”
“And it was all because his brother was trying to take the company away from him. The company he felt that by rights his father ought to have left solely to him.”
“And that’s the same reason he killed Lavinia, she wanted to take away the family business.”
“Fathers and sons, now there’s a relationship that really screwed up,” Charles said. He shook his head and instantly regretted it. “Look at Jack and his father, and me and my father.”
Charles turned his head and saw the baseball bat resting across the arms of the chair.
“I thought it deserved to be placed on display somewhere since it was instrumental in saving our lives. At least that’s one good thing your father left you.”
Charles was about to deny it, then he paused.
“Maybe it is. Maybe it is.”
