“Now, why do I have a feeling Mayor Thane paid you to spread that rumor? Must be because I saw him talking with you and Dodie out here a few hours ago. What’s the going rate for malicious gossip, Edgar?”

She had seen the mayor stop his car in the street to talk with them shortly after Drew abruptly left the diner.

“Watch your mouth, little girl,” he said.
