Diver Down (Mercy Watts Mysteries) - Plot & Excerpts
Lucia was hobbling around and fussing over him. He was loving it. She tucked him in and got him a bottled water. Pretty good for someone with an open infected stab wound, but I’ve noticed that women usually rise to the occasion when someone they love is wounded or ill, no matter their own condition. I wanted to tell her to knock it off and lie down, but it would’ve done no good. She had to take care of him. It was nice to see them together like that. They smiled and touched each other’s hands. I don’t know how I could’ve suspected him. Oz had totally thrown me off the trail with his suspicions. Of course, there were the bruises he’d noticed and he was right. Lucia was bruised to an unnatural extent and I hadn’t explained that yet. I supposed I couldn’t really eliminate Graeme from the list of suspects until I did. Plus, I was curious. I couldn’t help myself. Too much Dad in me. “Do you mind if I use your bathroom?” I asked. “Sure,” said Lucia as she got on the bed and cuddled up to Graeme. I went into the bathroom and closed the door.
