Shauna and Tyler were being questioned separately. They were both insistent they had nothing to do with the break-in at Alfred and Charisse’s salon.

“You had a lot of cash in your suitcase,” one of the detectives said to Tyler. “You want to tell me where you got it?”

“We don’t have a bank account here in New York. We’ve been traveling. That’s why we were carrying such a large amount of money.”

“Twelve thousand dollars?”

“Yes.”

“That’s a lot of cash to have sitting around. And three months is a long time to hang around the city without a job. What have you two been doing with yourselves?”

“We’ve done work for the Neys. We planned to leave after the wedding.”

“I’m sure you did.”

“So where did you get the cash?”

“We had it when we got here!” Tyler insisted.

“You’re sure you didn’t rob any banks to get it?”

“No more questions. I want to talk to a lawyer.”
