The Outcast Dove: A Catherine LeVendeur Mystery - Plot & Excerpts
Josta fretted. “I don’t think this punishment is going to work.” “Has Arnald’s family had any better luck?” Solomon asked. “I spoke to his mother, Maria, Friday before the Sabbath started,” Josta said. “He hadn’t confessed to anything yet. He won’t say where he met Belide or why they were out. Maria thinks he’s trying to act ‘noble,’ like the heroes in those stupid gestes. She told him he’s better off as a salt merchant who doesn’t keep things from his mother. She’s as close to wit’s end as I am.” “Do Arnald and Belide know that the poor monk has died?” Hubert asked. “They do.” Bonysach looked out into the courtyard, where rain was pooling in the hollows of the flagstones. “It seems to make them even more determined to keep silent.” He drummed his fingers on the arm of his chair. “They can’t have had anything to do with the attack,” Solomon said. “Whatever they’re hiding, it’s not criminal.” “How can I be sure?” Bonysach said.
