Jack laughed softly and squeezed my hand again. “It is what it is. And it was never ours to begin with. I’ve accepted that. It’s always the ethical cases that are the toughest. And I get questions from cops all the time. Why isn’t it okay to kill the child molester ourselves instead of making a clean arrest? And I know the cops that ask those questions will never last. They don’t have the spine for the job or the strength of character it takes to do what we’re sworn to do. I don’t have to agree with the law or my own wishes to uphold it.”

Jack might have accepted the outcome of Doctor Hizumi getting away with murder, but I knew it would be one of those things that weighed heavy on his heart for the rest of his life.

I squeezed his hand and held on tight. “Where do you want to go?” I asked on impulse.

I wasn’t ready for our time together to be over either—to go back to the funeral home and serving the dead. To the erratic and sometimes long hours.

“How about a cabin in the mountains?” he said. “And this time I say we lock ourselves in until it’s time to fly back home. The only adventures I want are the ones happening in our bedroom.”

“You make a convincing argument, Sheriff Lawson. You can count me in.”

“I always do, Doc. I always do.”

He twined his fingers with mine and I leaned against him for the rest of the ride. Our adventures were just beginning.
