Homicide! (Parker & Knight Book 2)
Page 7
They had caught the three-man crew in the act as they were loading stolen goods into a van. The van was parked in the driveway of the house that was being robbed, and a watchful neighbor had called and reported suspicious activity.
Parker took a sip from his cup and looked over at Jo.
“Are we still on for Atlantic City, Sunday?”
“Sure, Matt and I are meeting you at your house at eight, and then we’ll go have breakfast, or do we have to pick Heather up first?”
“Heather will be with me.”
“Is she staying the night?”
Parker smiled. “Yes she is,”
“Good for you, I’m glad things are working out.”
“Working out? I’ve never been happier.”
“Speaking of happy, your ex-wife is now Mrs. Timothy Hearn, I also hear that she’s going to be half-owner of Taggart’s.”
“She called me the night before the wedding.”
“Are you serious?”
“Yes, I wished her well and told her I was with Heather?”
“What did she say about that?”
“She hung up.”
“I’m actually surprised that Patrick Taggart has agreed to sell Hearn the bar. I would think he’d be the last person he would sell to.”
“He told me that he got the last laugh anyway. It seems Hearn was under the impression that the land on the other side of the lake came with the bar, but it doesn’t, in fact, the old man left the house and the land to Patrick’s younger brother, Nate Taggart.”
“How come I’ve never met him?”
“I’ve never met him either and the chief said that he left town years ago. He also said that he’s more like his grandfather than is good for him.”
Jo sighed.
“I would have liked to have arrested Nico for Woolley’s murder.”
“You still might get your chance someday.”
“No, the doctors think Nico’s coma is irreversible.”
“So, Hearn got the bar, got free of his involvement with Nico, and got my ex-wife,”
Jo stood and grabbed her jacket off the back of the chair.
“If Hearn was stupid enough to get mixed up with Nico, then he’ll slip up someday,”
They rode down in the elevator together, and as they were walking out the door, Parker’s phone beeped, informing him that he had a text. It was Heather, telling him that she was free and would meet him at his house.
Jo waved to him. “Have a good night.”
Parker smiled.
“Count on it.”
