Angel's Flight (A Mercy Allcutt Mystery) - Plot & Excerpts
“I notice you say they think he did it. Does this mean that you don’t?” “Haven’t made up my mind yet,” said Phil, looking less nervous and more policeman-like. “We have to sift through all the evidence.” “What about Mr. Hartland?” I demanded. “He lied about not being there, and he had a lot to gain from his mother’s demise.” “We know that. We’re looking into all aspects of the case and all possible suspects.” “Then why did you arrest Rupert?” “He was considered a flight risk.” “A flight risk?” I stared at the man, incredulous. “He fled from Oklahoma to avoid a lesser charge than murder.” I didn’t really have an answer to that one, so I merely said, “Hmph,” and pointedly turned away from Phil to busy myself with some paperwork. At least when an unwelcome client came to call, I got to document his or her appointment in the appropriate file, which would take a minute or two.
