Sinners Anonymous (Sinners Anonymous, #1)

by Somme Sketcher

“Is this what it’s going to be like now?” I rasp. “Me drip-feeding you sins so you don’t listen to the ones I dialed in?”

“So, your father used to listen to confessions. You do too. You’ve modernized your father’s confession booth.” “Wow. Gold star for Detective Aurora.”

“She pulled the same stunt at the funeral.” Without looking up, I clench my fists against my chest. “Who is she?” “No idea. My aunt’s cousin’s step-mom twice-removed, probably.”

“Ask me for a sin.” The hairs on the back of my neck stand up. “I—What?” “A sin, Aurora. I know you’re familiar with the term.”

“I don’t negotiate with terrorists.”

“If Angelo doesn’t come back, I expect another call.”

“And this time, I hope your sin won’t be hypothetical.”
