Bill came to stand to my right and took my hand. Together, we watched the firefighters aim the hose through the broken window. A sound of shattering glass from the other side of the house indicated they were breaking the window over the sink, too. While the firefighters concentrated on the fire, the police concentrated on the body. Charles stepped up to bat right away. "I killed him," he said calmly. "I caught him setting fire to the house. He was armed, and he attacked me." Sheriff Bud Dearborn looked more like a Pekinese than any human should look. His face was practically concave. His eyes were round and bright, and at the moment extremely curious. His brown hair, liberally streaked with gray, was combed back from his face all around, and I expected him to snuffle when he spoke. "And you would be?" he asked the vampire. "Charles Twining," Charles answered gracefully."At your service." I wasn't imagining the snort the sheriff gave or Andy Bellefleur's eye roll.
