Chapter 7

Bobby and Alex had been at the party for about 4 hours and there was no sign of their potential perp. Bobby had wondered off to the bathroom, leaving Alex at the bar with specific instructions 'Do not go off with a stranger who could be our perp, under any circumstances'.

Alex was standing at the bar lost in her thoughts when a finger tapped her left shoulder.

"would you like to dance?" a woman in her late 20's dressed as Morticia Addams asked

'I wonder if she is our perp.' Alex thought before deciding to ignore Bobby's instruction

"sure. I'm Alex"

"Keisha"

Keisha led Alex onto the dance floor and they started dancing.

Bobby returned from the bathroom to find Alex was gone. After looking around for her frantically, Bobby turned to the bartender

"excuse me"

"yes sir, what can I get you"

"nothing I was just wondering where the woman I was with went"

"she is on the dance floor with Keisha"

"who is Keisha?"

"Keisha Jarman, obviously you are not familiar with Dale Wolfman He just happens to be one of the main stockbrokers in New York. Keisha is his personal secretary."

"ok. Thanks"

"you sure I can't get you anything to drink"

"Positive" Bobby replied before heading out to the dance floor to find Alex.
