Enjoy an EXCERPT:


Kelly led the way to the top of the stairs as her husband sat at the poker table to appease his guests. When we reached the second floor, I could hear one of their daughters singing from a bedroom.

“Someday I won’t be anybody—I’ll just be the sky …”

It was very prophetic and, yet, very sad.

“Mama?”

“Yes, Mimi?”

“Who’s here?”

“Mr. Blue. He lived in this house before us. He just wanted to see it again,” Kelly answered.

Mimi scuffled out into the hallway to greet us. My heart almost stopped in my chest. She looked at me suspiciously as soon as she saw me in the hallway.

“Mama, this is the man who gave me the flower today!”

Mimi ran back into her room to grab her daisy. Kelly looked at me with curious eyes. I could sense J0 make the connection between Mimi’s flower and the flowers that I had brought home earlier. Out of my peripheral vision, I saw her turn and glare at me. I realized that explaining the situation to Mimi’s mother was probably more important than J0’s impending wrath.

“Jeff, were you the one who gave Mimi that flower? She told me that some guy stopped to watch her and her friends play soccer, and then he gave all the girls a flower. My first reaction was to call the police and let the Justice Computer handle the situation.”

“I’m sorry if I scared you, Kelly,” I began. “I had just come from the mall after buying daisies for Julie. I was trying to find this house before I went home, but I could only remember the street name, not the address. I saw Mimi and her friends playing, and I was just trying to be friendly. I didn’t mean any harm.”

I hoped that my answer would satisfy both Kelly and J0 at the same time, so I wouldn’t have to face J0’s asperity once we got back to the hover car.

“That’s so sweet,” Kelly said. “You can’t even accept a nice gesture anymore without suspicion these days, it seems. It’s sad, really, when you think about it.”

Although I was relieved that Kelly seemed satisfied with my explanation, I was sure that J0 was going to interrogate me later, especially since the ELO device hadn’t tracked me going anywhere near West Winter Street.

“Did you thank Mr. Blue?” Kelly asked her daughter.

“Yes, Mama.”

“You have a sweet girl,” J0 commented.

I shot J0 a quizzical look. I couldn’t quite decipher if she was just being tactful to keep up appearances while we were inside the Kaminskis’ house. I was even more frightened that I was going to be berated once we left.
