      Dominic huffed. “But I’ve already told you everything.”

      “Then you won’t mind writing it down.” Reed didn’t give either of them a chance to refuse, either. He pointed toward the two interview rooms just up the hall. “Rooney on the right. Dominic, you can take the left one.”

      Rooney headed in the direction he’d been instructed, clearly cooperating. About this anyway. But Reed had been a deputy long enough to know that sometimes the most cooperative suspects were the guiltiest. Rooney could be here to manipulate the investigation or at least try to figure out what Reed knew.

      Which wasn’t much.

      “The firemen finally put out the fire,” Colt said immediately. But his hesitation after that had Reed groaning.
