The Stein & Candle Detective Agency, Vol. 3: Red Reunion (The Stein & Candle Detective Agency #3) - Plot & Excerpts
3: Red Reunion Lounge LizardsWeatherby didn’t tell me we’d be meeting his sister at the Royal Crown Lounge until we reached Lake Tahoe. We were there on a case, and maybe I would have been pissed at the kid for arranging to meet her when we were on a client’s time, if I didn’t know how much he cared for her, and how rarely they saw each other. Selena brought out a subtle change in Weatherby. The mask of a superior, confident, arrogant genius aristocrat cracked like porcelain under a baseball bat when he saw her. The fifteen-year-old kid in Weatherby got to take a peek outside.I also didn’t mind because I knew Selena wasn’t some airheaded college girl, worried about clothes, shopping, boys and not much else. Selena could take care of herself. She was studying anthropology in New York, and was almost as big an expert on the occult and folklore as her baby brother. She was brave, too. Selena had been at boarding school in the States when the Nazis had taken her family as hostages for Hitler.
