They arrived at the lab amid a swarm of people with "FBI" written on their jackets.

"What in the world?" said Bobbie.

"Something has happened," said Lindsay.

They left the groceries in the vehicle and hurried through the lab. Lindsay caught sight of Trey standing with Harper just inside the front door. Harper had her arms folded, looking at the floor. Trey stared out the door where several FBI men were gathered. Francisco Lewis was with them. He looked grim.

"Trey?"

"Chamberlain, I'm glad you're back."

"What's going on?"

"They've found a body in the alligator pool."

"A body? Whose?" Lindsay looked through the glass doors to see if she could get a glimpse of something, but all she saw was people standing in the way.

"We don't know yet," answered Trey. "This being hot weather, and it being in the alligator pond, and alligators being carrion eaters-well."

Bobbie groaned.
