Thanks much. How I came up with the idea? I'd always had a serial killer mystery on my list of things I'd like to do at some point. It varied vastly from my back of the napkin summary. The common thread is the detective's name, Saggio, which translates from Italian as wise. I say a news photo with someone wearing a fancy hat, I looked into it, found it was also called a fascinator, and voila!
I'll make sure a rewrite includes a cat as a murder weapon. Do big cats count? Although, I guess if Parker was older, she could be considered a cougar.
Causing confusion was intended. Glad it worked. I won't mention you cheated on guessing this was mine because I initially asked you to edit for me. Whoops, did I say that out loud?
Bum bags. That's funny.
No hearing in this case, I figured there'd be enough court activity. From chapter 6
The truth shall come out, but it won't set a couple free.
