Camryn Brooks, manager of Curio Finds, and the first person narrator discovered Molly dead in her shop bathroom on Molly’s first of work. The police, including her friend, Officer Mark Weston, and sheriff’s deputies are there in no time. As are her best friends, Pinky Nelson who owns the adjoining coffee shop, and teacher Erin Vinkerman. After the first layer of dust has cleared, Assistant Police Chief Clinton Lonsbury is ready to interview Pinky and Cami. Cami once again feels driven to find out what happened, and finds herself in some big trouble along the way.
The team finished processing the scene and Dr. Long left with Molly’s body. Clint and Mark each took down an end of the crime scene tape that spanned the archway between Curio Finds and Brew Ha-Ha and rolled it up.

“Just Pinky?” I said.
