Harry had been my best friend for a decade. He knew everything about me, including things I either didn’t know or didn’t acknowledge.
“Ten per cent,” I sighed. “Maybe fifteen.”
“And the other eighty-five to ninety per cent?”
“I actually enjoy the class.”
“Which should be celebrated,” Harry said. “I’m thinking beer.”
We settled on a cheapie bar a few blocks distant and I finished putting my materials away. We were heading out the door when my cell trilled, screen showing Tom Mason.
“You still at the academy, Carson?” Tom asked.
“I’ve been arguing pedagogical theory with an fellow academician, Tom,” I said, winking at Harry. “What can Professor Nautilus and I do for you?”
“Harry’s there? Good. A body was just found along a bike path near there, by the university …”
Harry’d parked in a lot one building over so we jumped in my truck and stuck the flasher to the roof. Three heart-pounding minutes later I sailed past a pair of cruisers, uniformed officers setting flares to divert traffic.
A hundred feet further I saw scene techs circling an object on the ground and pulled over. The area was lit by headlamps from the cruisers and we felt a rush of relief at seeing Holliday at the periphery, looking unsteady but alive. She had a bright orange helmet in one hand, the other was holding up a bicycle.
