Murder Under the Boardwalk

Agnes Beasley was relieved that she did not have to tell her boss
the entire story.... happy that he had read part of it in the magazine.
She also made a mental note to herself to remove the trashy magazines
from the waiting room coffee table and to give it a quick dusting.

Everyone on the street was talking about Viv Vavoom's antics
while visiting London. Agnes Beasley was quite embarassed at it all and
was very happy she did not have to use the word "naked" when
explaining the story to Mr. Rockhead.

There was more to the story - some important details that did not
make it into the trashy magazine. People had been talking about
Daniel Vavoom senior. In his hospital bed, on a respirator,
Vavoom Sr., known as The Rock because of being the only stable
member of the family, had been writing messages on a small white
board. He was pleading for help. On several occasions he had asked
for the police to be called in, to investigate his daughter in law and her
wild sister. The Rock was afraid for his son's safety. He didn't trust
the two women. Jim Rockhead re-entered his office trying to absorb
and make sense of all of this information.

At that moment, the office door flew open - Valerie Vavoom storming through in her red dress like jello bouncing on 2 springs.

"That Vivian!", she sobbed, "She's been nothing but trouble since running off to Hollister with that Hungarian Harley dude!" Now she's off in London wearing nothing but her nautical star tattoos raining disgrace down on us all"

Seeing the shocked look on Jim and Agnes' faces, she took a deep breath, composed herself and said "I'm so sorry..."

Agnes looked over at Rockhead with a look that said "we really need the money". Before Rockhead ushered Ms. Vavoom back into his office, Agnes mouthed the words "get a deposit" to her boss.

Then Agnes turned and walked out of the office, thinking that
if she at least found the missing pomeranian they would collect
$500 and be able to pay some of their mounting bills.

She did not envy Mr. Rockhead's position at this time. Agnes
willingly went back out into the rain to search for the missing
pooch.
