“What are you talking about?”

“Someone sent a note to the mansion today regarding Tiara’s whereabouts. I want you to be here when I call Detective Riley so that we can deliberate on it together.”

“Oh, my God!” She gasped. “Why didn’t you say that first?”

“Well, now you know. Are you coming?”

“Give me twenty minutes!”
