Chapter 1
"What's this about, Ecklie?" Tracy Sanders-Stokes looked at the search warrant in her hand, then back to Conrad Ecklie – her supervisor on day shift – in confusion, as her fellow day shift CSIs moved past them into the house. She caught several of them shooting her pitying looks as they moved past. Reading the warrant, Tracy felt her heart skip several beats. "Nick's gun? Doesn't he have it with him?" she asked weakly, her knees feeling as though they might buckle at any minute.
"He claims to have lost it," Ecklie responded.
Her hands fluttering in the general direction of the bedroom she shared with her husbands, Nick Sanders-Stokes and Greg Sanders-Stokes, Tracy said, "If it's here, it'll be in the lock box in the closet. He never leaves it anywhere else in the house because of the kids," she said, giving her supervisor the combination to the lock box. Feeling faint, she asked, "What happened? Is Nicky okay?"
With a sigh, Ecklie said, "There's no easy way to say this, Tracy. Nick was arrested for murdering Dan Waynright."
"What! No!" Tracy shook her head.
A/N: Hope I've got you curious as to what happens next. Evil grin Did Nick kill this Dan Waynright person? Who is Dan Waynright? Guess you'll just have to wait and see. Please read and review!
