LaSalle, Patton and others in “#1 Fan”

Pride sent me a text. He got a tip from a law enforcement buddy. "Check Lindsey's apartment for a book on Renaissance art, sundial, and exotic flowers.

Pride's buddy's onto something.

Well, you mean Pride's onto something. He must be working the case from Gulf Shores, which means New York here just earned herself a Red Sox jersey.

Uh, no, not until I see him walk through that door I haven't. Besides, this stuff doesn't get us any closer to finding Lindsey or the stalker.

That's not entirely true. The Madagascar jasmine, that's that's promising. Let's see, yeah. Pyrethrum isn't just used on crops. It's also used on exotic flowers. Patton, can you search for for Southern Louisiana specialty nurseries, ones that deal in exotic flora?

I'm on it. Rare Earth Nursery on the West Bank. But it went under last year.

That doesn't mean that the greenhouses still aren't functioning. Stalker tracked in the pesticide. There's a good chance that he's growing those flowers out there himself.

Well, there's only one way to find out.
