The Bone Orchard: A Novel (Mike Bowditch Mysteries) - Plot & Excerpts
Over the years, Kathy had transformed the formal sitting room into what she called her “woman cave.” She had removed the rocking chairs and love seats and replaced them with a leather recliner, sectional couch, and wide-screen TV, on which she watched nothing but sports. She’d had me over for a Patriots game once, but she’d gotten so apoplectic, screaming at the television after every dropped pass and missed route, that I’d never dared return. “You don’t have to stay,” I told Deb Davies. “What are you going to do?” “I’ll grab my sleeping bag from the Bronco and camp out on the couch until he wakes up.” There wasn’t much else I could do for Kathy at the moment. “You know,” she said, “there’s a good chance he won’t remember anything that happened tonight. His blood-alcohol level is over the moon. You might have to break the news to him all over again,” she said. “Yippee.” “What if he wakes up with withdrawal symptoms?” she asked. “You mean like the DT’s?”
