Chapter 37: Clarissa Monigal

4:15 P.M.
Who was Clarissa Monigal besides Laura Monigal’s granddaughter and Clifton’s cousin? Being quite curious, I took the next hour to creep on the Internet and find anything I could on the woman, mostly from using Google. Although very little information about her was unearthed, what I did find ended up being valuable. Her beauty struck me. Blonde and petite, she dressed well. I would not have been surprised to learn that she had taken place in numerous beauty pageants as a younger woman. I learned her age: twenty-seven. And I also learned where she worked: as an editor at Tampa Palm Press for the last four years. She drove a Honda Accord, wasn’t married, and occupied her time by dating a young doctor named Reed Simons.
