was a connection between the killer and this property? He needed to find out exactly what other properties Tia owned.
But Pine Paradise was a good, isolated place to hide while experimenting with making bombs, far away from the inquisitive locals. Someone who wouldn’t hesitate to blow up buildings and kill innocents like Quinn to cover a larger crime.
But what if this bombing was connected to the Groom Killer? There was no evidence yet to link the two crimes, but as an investigator trained to be thorough, he couldn’t rule it out. He had to look at all angles.
Maybe the bomber wanted to kill Quinn because she was related to Demi Colton.
Even without the autopsy report on Tia, West’s instinct warned whoever had planted the bomb didn’t do it to kill the real estate agent. Bombs were tricky. Sometimes they didn’t detonate, so as a means of killing someone, they were unpredictable.
The killer hadn’t used enough explosives to totally destroy Tia’s body. He’d planted the bomb in the wrong place. Maybe he—or she—had been in a hurry. Or perhaps the bomber’s intention had been to destroy evidence.
Or unfamiliar with exactly where to plant a bomb in order to do the most damage, and destroy the evidence one wanted to cover up.
And then Quinn had interrupted the crime. That meant she was a witness, and whoever did this would want to erase any evidence.
Eradicate any witnesses, especially one Quinn Colton.
Later, he and Rex would take a road trip to Pine Paradise. But not for trout fishing.
Fishing of a different sort—searching for Tia’s killer.
