The doorbell rang, jerking Deke out of his thoughts. He trekked across the room, paused in front of the door and peered through the peephole, then unlocked the door and opened it to allow Lieutenant Desmond, Cara Bedell and Geoff Monday entrance.
“How’s Lexie?” Desmond and Cara asked simultaneously.
“A little shaken up but okay.”
“Where is she?” Cara charged into the loft, searching for her friend.
The powder-room door opened and Lexie emerged, her face pale, her makeup partially washed off and her shoulders bravely squared. “Y’all made it here in record time,” she said.
Cara ran to Lexie and grabbed her by the arms, then looked her over from head to toe. “Thank God you’re all in one piece.” She glanced back at the detective. “Geoff and I followed Bain the whole way. People get out of the way for a policemen’s flashing light.”
Desmond came up behind Cara, reached around her and took Lexie’s free hand. He gave it a squeeze. “I need to go downstairs and play ringleader to the circus out there. I’ll get back to you as soon as possible, and I’ll need you to answer a few questions.”
“Go. Do what you need to do,” Lexie told him. “Deke will take care of things here.”
Desmond glanced at Deke. “Actually, I need Mr. Bronson to go with me and fill me in on what he saw. But Mr. Monday will stay here with you and Cara.”
Cara pulled Lexie toward the sofa. The two women sat side by side and began talking softly, almost whispering.
When Desmond left the apartment, Deke went with him. As they waited at the elevator, Desmond asked, “Were there any people in those cars that blew up out back?”
