Spencer’s brow furrowed as he glanced down at the bucket.

“You have to find my sister’s husband. If it’s he who’s doing this,” she quickly added.

“We’re doing everything we can to find him,” Spencer said, his gaze intent on her. “To get answers.”

“To answer your earlier question, I won’t leave, won’t abandon my nieces. Because—” she swiped the bucket out of his hand “—that’s exactly what her killer wants me to do.”
