Magnum P.i. Now

I squatted down. Eye level. The way you talk to kids and cornered men. “Boyd, she doesn’t want you back. She wants the deed to the catamaran. The one you signed over to a shell company named after your girlfriend’s middle name.” His face went the color of old tuna. “How did you—”

The case was simple. They always sound simple at two in the afternoon when the light slants through the jalousies and the ceiling fan chops the heat into usable pieces. “Find my husband,” she’d said. Diamond earrings. Diamond voice. Trouble in a sundress. Magnum P.I.

I wouldn’t have it any other way.
