PATTERN OF VICTIMS
“You already know that Daniel Price was not Jordan Price’s first husband, don’t you?” Maleah asked.
“Yeah,” Rick said. “So what?”
“She was a widow when she married the senator, so now at the ripe old age of thirty-four, she’s been widowed twice. Actually, she was almost widowed three times.”
“Explain.”
“When she was twenty-one, she was engaged to a man named Robby Joe Wright. Three weeks before their wedding, he died in a one-car accident. Then a few years later, when the lady was in her late twenties, she lost husband number one, Boyd Brannon, in a hunting accident, and now her second husband supposedly committed suicide. Odd, don’t you think, that three men who loved Jordan Price have died?”
“Are you saying you think she killed all three men?”
“Maybe. Possibly. I’m going to dig deeper and find out if she gained financially from Robby Joe Wright’s death or Boyd Brannon’s death. Want to bet me that she did?”
A sick feeling hit Rick in the pit of his stomach. “If I was sure the lady was innocent, I’d take you up on that bet.”
“But you’re not sure, are you? You’re wondering, just like I am, if maybe Jordan Price is a black widow…”
