R.P. Dahlke - Dead Red 04 - A Dead Red Alibi - Plot & Excerpts
Chapter Sixteen: Skylights had been added to let more daylight into the barn converted studio. A man in a T-shirt, overalls, and long leather welder gloves and helmet, was welding half a bronze horse to a tall ornate gate. I nudged Pearlie. “I knew it. It’s the same as the one in the gallery.” We stepped into his line of sight just when he tipped up the helmet to examine his work. Dropping his welder’s torch he cursed and yanked off his helmet. He picked up the torch and snapped off the blue flame. “Jesus! Who the hell let you two in?” “The barn doors were open,” Pearlie said, ignoring his overheated demeanor. “Wow. This is really beautiful.” “Bethany’s dad sent us,” I said, and nudged Pearlie. “A card?” He ran a broad, calloused hand though wavy hair the color of sandstone. His turned down mouth reinforced my first impression; handsome was not happy with the two blonds in his way, and he was impatient to get back to work.
