Corpse Whisperer (27 page)
Authors: Chris Redding
She took a deep breath. Her rational side warred with her heart. She didn’t want to lose Zach. She didn’t want to start from scratch. She liked too much that he loved her.
And that she loved him.
“I could just stay away from dead people,” she said.
He shook his head. “You want to know almost as much as I want to know.”

She took another deep breath and plunged into the cold storage room of the morgue. He’d whispered to her what drawer the victim was in.
With her hand shaking, she pulled it open.

Nothing.
Sweet nothing.
