"You blackmailed him into leaving that small shopping bag in Tammy's closet when he serviced her place the next time. Naturally she would look through it and get her prints on the gun box."

"Yes, apparently he found time in between smelling her panties."

"Why did you bring Tammy into it?"

"Two reasons, the first is technical. If you'd just gone to see Towson and left, no one would know you'd been there. I couldn't count on you leaving fingerprints. I couldn't even count on him letting you in. My plan needed Tammy. I knew you'd find her and tell her you'd gone to Towson's. Then she'd give evidence you were at the crime scene."

"And the other reason?"

"Embarrassment, the date-rape thing. I wanted to link her forever with Barner, start people talking about a sex scandal. Dream girl screwing the repulsive town creep. The rumor would ruin her. No brains and no breeding, yet she was sailing through life because Al wanted to keep her magical boobs within reach."

"They were lovers?"

"Of course they were lovers. He's a man isn't he? She turned him against me with all her jiggling around."

"You just admitted you planned to murder him."

"I admit I was thinking about it. Norma Martin saved me the trouble."

"You're telling me you planned this whole scheme and didn't go through with it. Norma Martin conveniently came by that afternoon and shot him for you? That's too wild."

"Lucky me." She shrugged. "And the town won't be laughing at me anymore. They were saying the Mensa babe wasn't smart enough to hold her man. He had millions and I ended up with a piddling monthly alimony. Did you see the faces on the town bitches at the party, when I left with you? Half hated me, half were cheering me on. And all knew they would be home in bed with their snoring pot-bellied old man while I was getting laid by the young guy."

"This isn't just about jealousy and revenge. You're hurting for money and you stand to gain big bucks out of his death. Furthermore, I'm going to prove you did it."

She was definitely annoyed at that. Ray jumped back as she abruptly pulled away.

A fascinating confirmation of his suspicions, and he needed to hear it to clear his mind. However, it wasn't recorded so it would do no good toward her prosecution. He'd give Sandy the details of what she disclosed. Sandy wanted everyone together that night to brainstorm and to discuss all that was known.

And Sandy has a proclamation-says she now knows the killer's identity.
