Clean: A Mindspace Investigations Novel - Plot & Excerpts
Cherabino was up, gun trained in less than two seconds on the phone on her nightstand. I blinked at her very nice butt, outlined through the pajamas. “Sorry,” she said, sheepishly. “It’s new.” She put the gun down on the nightstand and picked up the handset. She frowned. I felt her decision to lie, to make it seem less suspicious that I was there. She didn’t want Paulsen getting the wrong idea. “He’s on my couch. Want me to wake him up?” Huh? “Just a second.” She held the phone against her shoulder, fidgeted for a long moment. “Okay, he’s here.” She held out the phone to me. I stood and took it, watching Cherabino carefully. She grabbed the gun and moved away a bit. “Yes?” I said into the phone. There was a long pause at the other end. “Hello?” Paulsen’s voice was testy. “You and Cherabino have been called into Fulton County. Atlanta PD thinks it’s another of our murders. They want you there five minutes ago.” “I thought we weren’t supposed to do fieldwork for a while?”
