From the 4.23.24 release of RETRIBUTION
Staring at the phone, Tucker debated calling Kella. It had been two days since she‘d been given all the case information. She should have gone through it by now.
Just as he decided to call, his secretary buzzed through.
“Yes, Marcia?’
“Call for you on two. I almost didn’t believe who it was.” Tucker could feel her smile through the office wire. “It’s Kella. I haven’t spoken to her in I don’t know how long.”
“Put her through.”
A second later he said, “Kella?”
“Hey, Tuck.”
“Please tell me you’re done with the profile.”
“I’m fine, and how are you this lovely morning,” she asked, a laugh in her voice.
Tucker tossed his glasses on his desk and rubbed his eyes. “Kella, I don’t have time –”
“You never did,” she told him, the mirth still in her tone.
“What have you got?”
“Well, to backtrack a little, I went through everything you gave me. This is one disturbed man.”
“That goes without saying.”
“Yeah well, you and the Posse probably have a baseline profile. Male, twenty-five to forty, trouble with relationships. Lives alone, no friends, menial job, poor education. How’m I doing?”
“Right on the nose.”
“Well, you can throw it away. None of it’s accurate, except for the gender.”
Tucker sat bolt upright, put his glasses back on, and pulled a legal pad and pen across his desk.
“Talk.”
Intrigued? I hope so. ~Peg
