stretched a hand toward her and all three goats edged forward to nip at her fingers and sleeve. She patted Mildred between the stumps of her horns.

      “Okay, Milly,” she said. “You and I are going to take the world by storm.”

      Though Britt was pleased with Mildred, Mildred didn’t appear to be thrilled with Britt. She complained loudly as the two women lifted her into the back of the truck. Britt raised the tailgate and locked it. Mildred looked at her with sad, accusing yellow eyes.

      Britt patted her flank. “It’s just for a couple of days, Milly. You’ll have fun.” Britt walked around the truck to the driver’s side, then turned to hug Judy. “Wish me luck. If this works, it could be the end of my problems.”

      Judy smiled skeptically. “Don’t be silly. This is life, Brittany. Problems never end, they just rest between eruptions.”

      “How’s the book coming?”

      “So-so. I think it needs more violence, but I’m not very good at that. I hate to hurt anyone I create.”

      “I’ll lend you my kids,” Britt said, grinning at her little play on words. “Fair exchange. They do violence to one another without a second thought or hint of remorse. Would that help?”

      Judy smiled blandly. “Thanks awfully, but I’ll pass. Let me know how it goes.”

      Britt waved out the window as she headed home.

      Her mind glutted with ideas, she tried to make herself relax and take it one slow and careful step at a time. First, she’d make Mildred comfortable. Then she’d see that she had just the right things to eat to produce the perfect milk for her recipe. Then she would make the recipe work.

      Everything would come together; she just felt it would.

      Britt pulled into her drive, noticing the young spring green on the tips of everything, then turned into the yard.

      She was just beginning to relax when she saw the red Explorer parked behind her station wagon. Her heart gave an involuntary and rather violent lurch. Jake Marshack was back.

      Конец ознакомительного фрагмента.
