One Dog Too Many (A Mae December Mystery) - Plot & Excerpts
Deputy Fuller informed the group that he located Ruby’s purse and had given it to the lab for testing. Although the M.E. informed Ben the previous day about Ruby’s pregnancy, he announced the information to the rest of the staff. He also told them that on the night she died, Ruby had dinner at the Bistro with a tall, dark-haired man wearing glasses. Robert volunteered to take a photo of David Allison to the restaurant to see if the wait staff could identify him as Ruby’s dinner partner. Ben asked him to get the receipt for dinner to see who paid for the meal. He had asked for it the night before, but nobody could find it. Perhaps they had paid with cash? The sheriff asked Detective Nichols to summarize their progress to date. “As I see it, there were plenty of motives for someone to want Ruby dead. Her ex, or soon-to-be-ex, David Allison, told us he dined with people from work that night. We’ll be asking for corroboration of his alibi. He may not have wanted Ruby to have a child.
