Hot Fudge Frame-Up: A Fudge Shop Mystery - Plot & Excerpts
She was carrying a crowbar. Pauline took off one of her ballerina flats and flung it hard at Mercy’s head. Mercy ducked. “Stop! Miss Mertens, are you crazy?” Picking up a lamp from the table to use as a weapon, I said, “Why are you here, Mercy?” “Probably the same reason you are. I saw your zippy yellow banana parked over on the road and suspected you were over here. So I came to help.” She hefted the crowbar. “Help? With what?” “With breaking into the safe. I’ve been hoping you’d get into that thing, but it’s been taking forever.” I put the lamp down, though I kept my eyes on her crowbar. “You’ve been watching us? Waiting for us to break in?” “Yeah. I didn’t want to break into it myself. Libby’s my friend. She wouldn’t like that.” Pauline asked, “How close of a friend?”
