Sam asked the minute we heard the elevator start its decent.“I believe him. Of course we don’t know if he knew about Martine’s affairs.”“If he did, then he just might have had a reason to kill her,” Sam said.“I’ll tell you one thing,” I said as I walked into the kitchen, “this ex-pat community is a regular little Scandal. You know, the TV show with Kerry Washington,” I said to my sister’s blank look.Just then the whir of the elevator sounded again and I looked at Sam wondering if Paul had returned. Maybe he regretted talking to us and decided to come back and kill us off. Sam must have had the same thought because she became frantic, and swirled around the room until her eyes rested on a mop leaning against the wall by the small washing machine. She picked it up and came to stand next to me. We stood there not saying anything, just listening to the elevator as it made its very slow climb up to our floor. It stopped and a few seconds later someone fiddled with the front door.
