he cocked a smile “—or if you just want to talk.”
“Just so you realize... If I can help my cousin, I will, but I don’t know where she is. Erin didn’t kill Michael.
He held up his hand before she could say anything else. “I’m leaving. I don’t want to get into an argument about Erin’s possible part in the murder.”
As Nicholas strode away with Max at his side, Selena unclenched her hands, noticing the fingernail indentations in her palms. That man could certainly infuriate her...but also intrigue her. Lord, give me the patience and guidance to help Erin. Open Nicholas’s eyes to the truth.

Nicholas spent the morning at Capitol K-9 Unit headquarters viewing security video from the morning that Selena was attacked. Next to him, Fiona Fargo, the team’s tech wizard, studied video on hallways leading to General Meyer’s office.
“Margaret Meyer is a busy lady,” Fiona said, pushing her rolling chair away from her desk and twisting toward Nicholas. “This is a list of suspects who could have broken into her office and read the Jeffries case file during your time frame.”
Nicholas stared at the fifteen names on the paper. “I want you to check into each one. Give me everything you can on them. Start with Vincent Geary—he’s an aide to Congressman Jeffries. The initials on the cufflinks found in the general’s office are VG. He’s my top suspect at the moment. When I leave here, I’m going to pay Mr. Geary a visit.”
“Do you want me to investigate General Meyer’s secretary, too?”
“Yes, everyone who was in the office during those hours. We have to include everyone. If you find anything suspicious, let me know right away.”
As Nicholas rose and stretched his stiff muscles, Fiona asked, “Where’s Max?”
“In the training yard. I wanted to give him a little downtime. He’s been working a lot lately.” Nicholas walked toward the doorway of Fiona’s office. “But his playtime is over.”
“He’s as driven as you are.”
“You know how dogs and their owners are.”
She shook her head. “Nope. I have cats.”
“Don’t let Max know.”
Fiona smiled. “Oh, he knows. Why do you think he sniffs me every time he sees me?”
“How does Chris’s K-9 deal with your cats?”
Fiona’s cheeks flushed. “We’re working that out.”
“Good. He’s a good guy. Bye and thanks, Fiona.” Nicholas strolled down the hallway. When his cell rang, he expected it to be Dan, who’d been going over security video at the White House, with news about Miss Chick’s assailant, but he noticed it was Selena. He quickly answered, “How’s the cleaning going?”
“Tedious. I know what the intruder took yesterday at my house.”
