Title: Shady Justice
Author: Rena Koontz
Genre: Thriller, Romantic Suspense
TV Crime Reporter Rylee Lapiz is determined to discover who murdered her best friend’s mother. When her confidential informant is also brutally killed, panic hits her like a tsunami wave. Will she be the killer’s next target?
His stomach growled. Since he’d emptied it in the grass, he craved a cup of coffee. As if reading his mind, the local crime reporter for the TV station he regularly watched stepped into his line of vision, two lidded coffee cups in her hands. She grinned, raised the cups in the air and lured him to the yellow crime scene tape cordoning off the area.
“Good morning, Detective. Black right? I brought one for Parker, too.” Funny, he’d been dealing with her longer than Bentley, but she never called him by his first name. He wondered again about Bentley’s affinity with women.
“Lois Lane, fancy seeing you here.” He reached for the Dunkin’ cup.
Rylee Lapiz grinned. “Heard it on the scanner. Was on my way to City Hall for a budget meeting. Thought I’d swing by and hear you tell me you can’t tell me anything.”
Chaney genuinely laughed, always amused by her optimism. “I can’t tell you anything.”
“I figured. Doesn’t hurt to ask, though. Can you at least tell me if it’s male or female? That would give me enough to tweet for the morning news and might make my editor tell me to stay here. The City’s in financial trouble. There’s nothing new to report there.”
“Since when do you cover politics?” She’d been the crime reporter for more than two years, to his knowledge. Always hustling, even though her news station was rated fourth in the market. In his opinion, her station was the best and most accurate, even when it came to forecasting the weather, which his arthritis did equally as well.
“Covering for the beat guy. He called in sick. I hoped you’d rescue me and give me a story.”
