Left to Vanish (An Adele Sharp Mystery—Book Eight) by Blake Pierce (best adventure books to read txt) 📕

watching the closedcircuit camera he’d installed across the street from Adele’s, watching thegrainy footage like a soap opera.

On a spare sheet of paper, next tothe ticket, the Painter traced loops and swirls, around and around. He pausedfor a moment, holding his pencil firmly and focusing. Then, in a quick motion,he created a spiral in the center of the page.

He stared at the thing, glanced atthe ticket, and frowned.

The Painter sighed, then shook hishead. “No, no, no,” he murmured. “That won’t do.”

He reached down, crumpling up thepaper and tossing it in the corner of the small, bare apartment he’d rented.

The crumpled paper landed amidst apile of other discarded attempts.

Not just any old pattern would do.Not for this one. This one had to be… special. Adele’s father was special. Theticket booked, the hotel booked, now all that remained was a finalization ofthe design he’d use.

When he’d first started, he hadcut and gouged into his canvas without practicing. But he was no longer anamateur. Practice made perfect. Perhaps a swirl by Joseph Sharp’s cheek… thenmaybe down to his chest, over his arm… Yes… yes, perhaps that would do.

The Painter leaned in, his browscrunched in concentration, but his lips still twisted in joyful delight. Hepulled another piece of paper and, once more, the booked ticket still justwithin sight, he began to trace another pattern.

This time, the design would haveto be perfect.
