Peggy Holloway - Judith McCain 01 - Blood On White Wicker - Plot & Excerpts
Then I realized that I wasn’t dreaming and that she was actually standing over my bed. She had a hypodermic needle in her hand. I started screaming, and she ran. Ray came running into my room, tucking in his shirt. “I was in the bathroom,” he said. “What happened?” When I told him, he got out his walkie-talkie and sent out an alert. Before long, the hospital was crawling with hospital security. John came in and jumped all over Ray for leaving his post. “I had to go to the bathroom, John,” Ray said. “What was I just supposed do, go in my pants?” When I heard this, I laughed so hard I almost lost my breath. John came over and slapped my face. It hurt my feelings more than my face, and I got tears in my eyes. “I’m sorry, Vicky, but you were getting hysterical.” He put his palm against my cheek very gently, “You forgive me?” In that moment I thought Rosa was so lucky to have him, and I knew he was a person I could truly trust. I felt so lucky because I had more people on my side than at any other time in my life.
