–––––––– MORT Vazarri used his elbow to open the door to a bedroom at Connor Freeman’s home in an exclusive neighborhood. Sato was downstairs at the foot of the curving staircase, working his smile for all it was worth as he talked with Chloe, a good-looking brunette crime scene technician. Sato liked to work the people angle in their cases. Mort knew the value of working contacts and dissecting interviews, but he’d always preferred objects to people. Physical things could tell you a lot about a person. Their medicine cabinet, trash, books, magazines, and mail showed how people really lived no matter what they said. Objects were more reliable than people, too. Get three eyewitnesses together and you’re likely to get three conflicting stories. Things like pill bottles and paper documents were hard evidence and couldn’t be discredited nearly as easily as witnesses. Interviewing suspects...well, every tiny detail had to be checked and rechecked. People lied. Their stuff didn’t.
