Eleanor said seriously, “Don’t forget that Dustin killed Scott. Even if the Spanners back him up, the Moseys won’t just let him get away with it.

“That is why we can work with the Moseys to turn the tables on Dustin. We won’t only protect ourselves that way, but we can also exact revenge. It’ll be a win-win situation!”

“You’re right, that’s a great idea!” Elena lit up. Why hadn’t she thought of it earlier?
