Murder on the Mainline: another Mike Claymore Mystery Chapter 11

... Trudy, you would have a built in baby sitter whenever you wanted. Wouldn't your young man like that?" Mike grins and says, "No need trying to convince me, I'm sold. It's up to the lady." Trudy says, "I'll call you tonight, but I think you've found a new star boarder. I'll have to see about Crystal's school and all, but I think we will come." "Good. Let me show you around." It turns out Cookie has her bedroom on the second floor and a second bedroom right next to her "For Crystal", she says. On the main floor is the master bedroom so Trudy would have the main floor to entertain her boyfriend in privacy, if she so wishes. Mike likes it better and better. They have to get going so Trudy promises to call this evening and they leave. She chatters on and on about the place until they get to POCO around eight thirty. Mike calls Georgette and explains his role in the investigation. She says to come right over. They drive to an apartment block and go up to 808. A cheeky strawberry blonde with red cheeks of about twenty-five answers the bell. "Do come in. I'm so upset over Flo and want to help in any way I can." "Thank you for seeing us so early in the morning. This is my associate, Trudy Garneau. We will try not to take too much of your time. Were you going out?" "No. I'm an early riser except when I'm working late." She smiles at Trudy as if to a kindred spirit. Mike takes a note pad from his pocket and a pen. He asks, "You were a friend of Flo's?" "Yes. As well as working together, ...

"You were both working at The Gardens the night she was attacked?" "Yes. We chatted all evening and planned to get together the next day for coffee." "Did you have any idea she was planning to go out after work that night?" Georgette looks thoughtful for a moment and Trudy pipes up. "She told you she was meeting a trick, didn't she? Did you have a trick that night?" Mike turns to Trudy to say something but thinks better of it. Georgette looks shocked then breaks down and cries. "She didn't tell me who she was meeting. I took my John to the park nearby. He just wanted a blowjob. How'd you know?" "We have to know these things in order to find out the truth. You didn't tell the cops she was meeting a John, did you?" Trudy's on a roll now and Mike let's her take over. "No. I didn't want them to find out about me. I don't think I'll ever be able to do it again. That guy's out there waiting for me next. I know she was going out with a customer that was in the pub that evening. There were so many in during the evening. I've been with quite a few of them. I'm so scared." "Any of the other girls turning tricks at the pub?" "I think one other girl is. I'm not sure. She only started a month ago. She may just be boy crazy." "What's her name?" "Caramel something. I don't know if that's her real name or not. Everyone just ...
