Stone Cold Crazy (Lil & Boris #4) (Lil And Boris Mysteries) - Plot & Excerpts
The state police showed up to lend a forensic hand, not that we needed much of one. At least, that’s what we thought. Gas leaks happen, and they have multiple causes. Faulty fittings, faulty pipe, bad valve, you name it.Arson.I looked at the county fire chief. He was about my age, had the hardened eyes of someone who has seen people burned to a crisp. There’s no describing that look. You know it when you see it, and you’re grateful it’s not you.Unless it is you, that is.Chief Perry Teague led me around the side of the building, to a fair-sized crater. “Take a looky here.”I took a looky there. Two hunks of concrete block lay there, like pieces of puzzle. Put together, they still weren’t entire. Someone had drilled a pretty decent hole through the block. I frowned, sniffed at it as I bent close. Gunpowder?I remembered Adam Weed’s comment. “He smelled matches.”“Probably the safety additive to the gas,” said Perry. “It can be kind of sulfurish. Or the ignition source, either one.”
