Harlan Coben Quote

Okay, Loren said. Anything else? It was like a shadow fell over his face. Eldon? Yeah, he said. There’s something else. I don’t like the way you said that. I don’t like saying it, believe me. But I think whoever did this did more than just smother her. What do you mean? You know anything about stun guns? Some. I think they used one. He swallowed. In her. When you say ‘in her,’ do you mean— I mean exactly what you think, he said, interrupting her. Hey, I’m a product of Catholic school too, okay? Are there burn marks? Faint. But if you know what you’re doing—and especially in an area that sensitive—you really shouldn’t leave them. It was also a one-prong stunner, if that helps. Most, like the police-issue stun guns, have two prongs. I’m still running tests, but my guess is, she died in a lot of pain. Loren closed her eyes.
