Robin Russell was already securing the crime scene with tape.
Ranger and Morelli slipped under the tape and picked their way around the bodies.
'Hi,' I said to them. 'What's up?'
'Not a lot,' Morelli said. "What's up with you?'
'Same old, same old.'
'Yeah, I can see that,' Morelli said.
'You remember Sally Sweet,' I said.
Ranger and Sally shook hands. And Joe and Sally shook hands.
'Sally mowed all these Slayers,' I said.
'I made sort of a mess,' Sally said. 'I didn't mean to run over them like this. I tried to stop, but the brakes aren't what they used to be on old Betsy. And it's friggin' hard to, you know, brake in heels. But what the hell, it turned out okay, right? All's well that ends well.'
Morelli and Ranger were both trying hard not to smile too wide.
'There's a nice reward being offered on Junkman,' Morelli said to Sally. 'Ten big ones.'
Ranger looked at the gun Sally was holding. 'Do you always carry an Uzi?'
'I keep it in the bus,' Sally said. 'Gotta protect the little dudes. I tried an AK-47, but it wouldn't fit under my seat. I like the Uzi better, anyway. It looks better with the dress. The AK seems too casual to me.'
'It's important to accessorize properly,' I said.
`Fudgin' A,' Sally said.
