A LESSON IN MURDER

Detective Reyes nodded at Sandra, appreciative of the fact she was such a fountain of information. Then he turned back to Maya. “Who is your client?”

“I don’t have to tell you that,” Maya said.

Reyes gave her a withering look.

“But I will,” Maya said. “My daughter. She wanted me to find out who was responsible for the site because she was afraid all the anger and finger-pointing was just going to get worse.”

“And you called nine-one-one?” Reyes asked Maya.

“Yes, right after I found the body.”

“She wrote a suicide note. It’s pinned to her sweater. She explains everything, how the guilt became too much for her,” Sandra piped in excitedly. “I can only imagine how she must have felt after seeing the consequences of her vicious website.”

“I don’t think she felt guilty about anything,” Maya remarked.

Reyes looked at her curiously. “Why not?”

“Because I don’t think this was a suicide.”

“What? But the note . . . ,” Sandra said.

Maya shrugged. “We don’t know for sure she wrote it.”
