Neal was in trouble, and the most likely source of that trouble was Eric Girard, Neal's partner, and all round, smirky, larcenous jerk. But what particular malfeasance and/or incompetence of Eric's could have made a client decide that planting a bomb on his yacht and incinerating him was just the perfect solution?
Or was the explosion an accident?
Sergeant King of the Natural Resources Police wouldn't say, but he kept boring into his relationship with Eric. So Eric had fired him from Girard-Hartmann Accounting. So they might have had a spirited screaming match when that went down. So?
So he was sitting on a dock with fire-burnt face, singed hair, and barnacle slashed legs. He had been two steps away from Eric's yacht when it had exploded; okay, maybe it had been ten, but he'd still been smacked off the dock into the tepid, blue water of Daugherty Creek.
And now Neal was telling him that he could go home. That everything was just as rosy as a park sunset?
He couldn't go; Neal was his friend, and he was in danger.”
