    CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE 7TH MONDAY Mike's early enough to help Trudy get Crystal off to school. Then they set out for POCO and Rita Harrison. Trudy is all primed to work on her. Mike says, "What did you find to do yesterday?" "I finished another list of skip tracing for a finance company in Chilliwack. It's in the mail. Don't forget to call Ray's lawyer this morning about the boots." "Duly noted. I'll have you call later around ten. Did you play tennis?" "No. I took Crystal out to the Flintstone Park at Bridal Falls. Cookie came with us. We had a good time. We had hot dogs and Coke. A lousy diet but Crystal loved it." "The young have cast iron stomachs." "Ain’t it just the truth?" They chatter and the miles fly by and they are soon in POCO. Mike takes a minute to call Ray's lawyer then joins Trudy for coffee. Trudy says, "Did he know Ray could identify his boots?" "Ray just called him before I did. He thanked me for picking up on that. Said it might prove useful. Ready for Rita?" "Let's go."

Rita enters, immaculate as she can be, with her hair piled high and a twinkle in her eye for Mike. She glances at Trudy and frowns then flashes her smile back at Mike. "You came back. I expected you to come sooner, ...alone." "Mrs. Harrison, there's been some new developments in the Flo Hanson case that need clarification. If you would be so kind as to answer a few more questions for us, we'll try not to detain you very long." "Oh please, call me Rita, Mike. Anything I can do for you will not be an imposition. Ask away. Please have a drink with me. Do you like Vermouth?" "Only in a very dry martini, but it is far too early in the morning for me. You go ahead if you feel you want to, it won't bother us." "How about coffee; Cafe au lait? Cappuccino?" "Maybe two plain coffees." Rita pulls a bell cord and the maid appears immediately. "Two coffees, Marie." "Yes Ma'am." "So you say there have been some new developments in the case. Tell me what you can, Mike." She puts her hand on his arm and leads him to a chair at a side table. Trudy follows along.
