Chapter 27

When Isobel reached street level, she found herself on Tenth Avenue and 26th Street. As she headed south and east toward Andrew's apartment, she reconsidered her fellow thespians in light of Angelina Rivington's death.

Jemma had been working as an escort, so surely she knew the rules of the game, but what if she'd fallen in love with Harrison and their affair had continued, even after Candy was out of the picture? Maybe, like Candy, Jemma hadn't felt threatened by Bethany. But if Harrison had also been having an affair with Angelina Rivington, maybe Jemma was the one pushed over the edge. In the same way that elegant Candy had felt threatened by Jemma's sultry appeal, maybe Jemma felt she couldn't hold her own against the striking, sophisticated Rivington. Isobel shook the thought from her head. Even to her, it seemed flimsy. Would that really be enough to drive Jemma to kill the judge? And besides, where would she have gotten a gun?
