Silent Knife (A Celebration Bay Mystery) - Plot & Excerpts
“Me? How do you figure that one?” “Well, we never had any murders before you came.” “Oh please. Some people might say that we wouldn’t have had this one if you hadn’t rented the store to Trim a Tree and their illegal Santa.” Liv could have kicked herself for that retort. She knew not to engage. You could never win an argument if you tried to reason with someone like Janine, or tried to outyell them. You had to act before they knew what you were doing. “In fact . . .” Liv stood, grabbed her parka off the back of the chair, took Janine by the elbow, and muscled her toward the door. “What do you think you’re doing?” “We’re doing. You and I are going down the street to speak with Grace. You’re going to explain to her that you misrepresented the rental space. I’m going to make sure this time you actually do it. Then you’re going to tell her that you completely understand and will speak to the landlord about releasing her from her rental agreement.” “I will not.”
