on his body. He had several long blond hairs on his jacket.”
    â€œProbably from the struggle,” Logan said. “Add that to the groin injury and that makes me think a woman killed him.”
    â€œI agree with that,” Jake added. “And since Durmorr confessed to Rose that he murdered Devlin, my guess is that the killer had something to do with that, too. I can think of one blonde who would be a prime suspect.”
    So could Gavin, and he’d seen her not more than a few minutes ago. “Gretchen’s definitely at the top of my list. But there’s something else. The hairs are from two different people. I’m wondering if this was some kind of love triangle gone bad and that it doesn’t have a thing to do with Devlin’s murder or the presumed hunt for that damn treasure.”
    Logan shook his head. “Two women? I know Malcolm always considered himself the ladies’ man, but it’s hard to believe he had one woman, much less two after him.”
    â€œGretchen and Durmorr definitely had something going on between the sheets,” Jake said. “Chrissie and I saw them together back in June. We both thought they looked pretty cozy.”
    A match made in hell, Gavin decided. “She supposedly has an alibi, although I’m going to check that out thoroughly. I imagine she paid off the pizza delivery man to cover for her.” He couldn’t imagine Gretchen eating pizza.
    â€œHave you talked to Travis Whelan about this?” Jake asked.
    Gavin had spoken to the D.A. and former Cattleman’s Club member two days ago, and it hadn’t been encouraging. “Yeah. He said we’ve got to have more to warrant a court order for her DNA. Not likely she’ll voluntarily hand it over.”
    â€œGretchen doesn’t like people telling her what to do, that’s for sure,” Jake said. “She’ll lawyer up right away. You’ll definitely need more to go on to make an arrest.”
    â€œI plan to keep looking until I find it.” And Gavin would, until he had this case solved. “I’d put her under surveillance, but I’m spread pretty thin right now with so many people out sick. Wayne’s agreed to help out with some of the city’s officers, but he can’t cover 24-7. Either of you want to help out a few hours if I decide we need it?”
    â€œThe wedding’s still a week away,” Logan said. “I could do a couple of hours here and there in the next few days, and after the wedding if necessary. We’re not going on a honeymoon right now since Melissa’s still settling in at the job.”
    â€œI can take a shift,” Jake added. “As long as it’s during the day.”
    Logan grinned. “And interrupt your nooners?”
    â€œHey, I perform just as well at night,” Jake said.
    Time to turn the subject back to the investigation, Gavin decided. “Okay. I’ll let you both know if we need some help. I’ll talk to Mark and Connor about that, too.”
    Logan turned and raised his hand. “Could you bring us some coffee now, Valerie? And bring me a piece of Manny’s coconut pie, okay?”
    â€œSure thing, Mr. Voss,” Valerie called, a sunny smile on her face. Gavin wished he could earn that kind of smile from her, and someday he would, even if it was the only thing she ever gave him.
    â€œYou know, I’m convinced Gretchen did this,” Jake said. “But then, I’m probably biased because I saw a really nasty side of her during the campaign.”
    Logan patted him on the back. “But you came out the victor in spite of that accusation about your campaign defacing her family’s historical display. And so far Gretchen hasn’t put a hit out on you for crushing her in the election, has she?”
    â€œNot yet,” Jake said. “But anything’s possible….”
    Gavin turned his attention to Valerie, who was pouring
