Devine thought this over. “You’re right about that. But the message did mention that a custodian had found her body. That led me to believe that the person was there that morning, because how else would they know about who found the body and when?”

“But why would it be important for you to know who found the body? Wasn’t it enough to tell you that she was hanging in a storage room?”

Devine started to say something and then stopped. “You’re right. I just never thought about that.”

“So why wait until the next morning to tell you about it? Why not email you that night, as soon as she was dead? You would have called the cops and they would have found the body.”

“I don’t know. The way you set it out, it makes no sense.”

“But it does make sense if the killer and email sender were two different people,” said Montgomery. “The killer murdered Sara. And told the email sender about it.”

“But we get back to the same issue. How would the killer know a custodian found the body the next morning? And if he didn’t know that, how could the person who sent me the email know about it?”

She looked around the space. “So this guy Myers found her. Why did he come into the storage room in the first place?”

“To get a printer cartridge that someone on the floor told him they—”

Devine stopped and looked around at the supplies on the shelving units before glancing at Montgomery.

She said, “Only you just told me there was no one on this floor on Friday. Then who told Myers to get a printer cartridge?”

“Let’s go ask him.”
