She was last seem with him. So he looked guilty.

Nick knew he would get through this, he was blessed with luck. they would find the guy that did it. He tried to think if Gina had mentioned the name of the date that stood her up. But he didn’t recall her having done so.

“Mr. Alero,” a tall detective said, ” Your lawyer is here.”

Janice Cartwright walked into the police station, head held high. “Hello Nick, in a bit of a pickle I see”, she quipped.
