When she reached the middle of the room, she slowed to take a deep breath, casting a quick glance behind her. Leaning against the backroom door, Beau stood casually puffing on his cheroot, watching her exit. She nearly stumbled. She could still feel him grinning as she hurried into the lobby and ran right into Ricky.
"There you are. Thank God, I— Kit!" he gasped, his eyes nearly popping from his head.
"It's rude to stare, Ricky," she said, heading for the elevator bank, elated with the success of her night's work. "Toss me your jacket, would you?"
He peeled it off and handed it over, stammering the whole time. "Wha-what…? Whe-where's…? Kit, there's some—"
"Oh, man, it was great!" she said when they were alone in the elevator. There was nothing like the high of pulling off a tough job. "It went off without a hitch. Perfect! You should have seen this guy."
"Kit, I, uh…"
"His pictures really do not do him justice."
"No, I'm sure they don—"
"Too bad we have to put him away, though. I liked him."
"Actually, we—"
The elevator stopped at their floor and she shot out, Ricky hustling after her. "Good card player, too. For a while there, I thought he was on to me."
"Kit, listen. Did you lose the necklace?"
"That was the plan, wasn't it? I attract him with the necklace, lure him to steal more where that came from, then—bam!—we catch him in the act. Of course, I lost it."
"Aw, hell."
She dug into her purse for her room key. "The dress, too. Obviously."
Ricky groaned.
"Hey, don't worry. I'll get it back before the boss finds out. What's the big deal?"
"The big deal is the man you were playing with downstairs is not Remi Beaulieux."
She spun around in shock. "Ricky, that's not the least bit amusing."
His face was a portrait of misery.
Her heart plummeted. How could this have happened?" Tell me it's not true."
He shook his head, lifting his hands in a gesture of helplessness. "I'm sorry, Kit. We've stung the wrong guy."
