Double Black Diamond (Mercy Watts Mysteries) - Plot & Excerpts
I can only describe it as wrongness. My so-called partner, Aaron, was an incredible cook and he’d been improving my palate. That smell would’ve made Aaron gag. It also would’ve made him cook, which is a great thing as long as he isn’t making crab. I hate crab. We made it down the corridor with Wallace nipping at my boot fur and barking at me. I didn’t kick, not once. Mainly because I had a witness, but also because after she’s barked at you six thousand times you start to tune it out. I was about to say, “What is that god-awful smell?” when the door flung open. Nancy stood there with a red-coated spoon and the ultimate smell of wrongness billowing out behind her. “Where have you been?” she asked. “Dinner’s ready.” Oh my god! “I fell, Mom,” said Pete. “Don’t make a big—” Nancy screeched, snatched Pete away from me, and literally carried him into the condo. I watched with my mouth hanging open. She carried him like it was nothing and Pete weighs 160 pounds.
