“But if it was here, don’t you think that whoever did this took the file with him?” the cowboy asked.

“Actually, I don’t. Look at this place. I’d say the person got frustrated when he didn’t find it. Otherwise, why trash the place?”

“You have a point. But let’s say the file you’re looking for is about the McGraw kidnapping. It wouldn’t be an old file since Hank called only a few weeks ago. When did he turn off his phone and electricity here at the office?”

C.J. hated to admit that she didn’t know. “We’ve both been busy on separate cases. But he would have told me if he knew anything about the case.” He wouldn’t have kept something like that from her. And yet he hadn’t mentioned talking to the McGraw lawyer and her instincts told her that Boone McGraw wasn’t lying about that.

That Hank now wouldn’t have the opportunity to tell her hit her hard. Hank had been like family, her only family, and now he was gone. And she was only starting to realize how much he had been keeping from her.

She had to look away, not wanting Boone to see the shine of tears that burned her eyes. She wouldn’t break down. Especially not in front of this cowboy.
