Bless Marianne, Emma thought as the plane touched down. She hadn't
asked any questions once she had seen that the answers would be painful.
Instead, she had roused herself barely past dawn, tossed on a blond wig,
sungla.s.ses, and Emma's overcoat and had cabbed it to early ma.s.s at Saint
Pat's. With the guards trailing behind her.
That had given Emma enough time to dash to the airport and catch her
plane to the Coast. As far as Sweeney and his partner would be
concerned, Emma McAvoy would be spending a quiet weekend at home.
Marianne would have to do some fast talking if Brian or Johnno called,
but then Marianne was nothing if not a fast talker.
In any case, Emma decided while she deplaned, the die was cast. She was
here, and she would do what she had come to do.
She had to see the house again. It had been sold all those years ago,
so it was doubtful she could w.a.n.gle her way inside. But she had to see
it.
,,The Beverly Wils.h.i.+re," she told the cab driver.
Exhausted, she let her head fall back, let her eyes close behind her
dark gla.s.ses. It was too warm for her winter coat now, but she couldn't
find the energy to shrug out of it. She needed to rent a car, she
realized, and let out an annoyed breath. She should have taken care of
that already. With a shake of her head, she promised herself she would
arrange it through the concierge as soon as she had unpacked the few
things she'd tossed into her bag.
There were ghosts here, she thought. Along Hollywood Boulevard, in
Beverly Hills, on the beaches at Malibu and throughout the hills looking
over the L.A. basin. Ghosts of herself as a young girl on her first
trip to America, of her young, heroic father hoisting her on his
shoulders in Disneyland. Of Bev, smiling, a hand laid protectively over
the child she carried in her womb. And always of Darren as he giggled
and ran his tractor over the turkey rug.
"Miss?"
Emma blinked and focused on the uniformed doorman who stood waiting to
help her from the cab.
"Checking in?"
"Yes, thank you." Mechanically, she paid off the driver, walked into the
lobby to registration. She took her key, forgetting for the moment that
this was the first time she had stayed alone.
In her room she opened the discreet Gucci carryon, by habit neatly
folding her lingerie, hanging her clothes, setting out her toiletries.
Once done, she picked up the phone.
"This is Miss McAvoy in 312. I'd like to arrange for a rental car. TWo
days. Yes, as soon as possible. That'll be fine. I'll be down."
There was something else that had to be done, though she was afraid.
Picking up the phone book, she opened it, skimmed through to the Ks.
Kesselring, L.
Emma noted down the address in her neat hand. He was still here.
"j&E YOU GOING TO EAT all morning, Michael, or are you going to cut the
lawn?"
Michael grinned at his father and shoveled in more pancakes. "It's a
big lawn. I need my strength. Right, Mom?"
