Scott Richardson wanted Luther isolated and out of his comfort zone. The ex-con was a cocky son-of-a-bitch and seemed to think he was invulnerable when it came to Cher.

They made sure they turned slowly, as if casing the property, even stopping for a moment at night to let their headlights rest on her trailer. Richardson was gratified to hear that the deputies reported a figure peeking out of the curtains just about every time they made their turns.

Ever since they’d married, he had talked over his cases with her at the dinner table.
