I set aside the first pile of cubes. Holly had said that the artist I now suspected was Yurbin was trying to manipulate her into giving him money. Did he think she’d cheated him out of a client? She’d seemed frightened at first, then just annoyed. Had he threatened her? Did it have to do with her art career, or something else? Had anything happened when Holly went to the church, the morning of the birthday party? Why did Holly give Audrey the puzzle with the strange instruction about “if something happened to her”? Why would Holly’s killer set a deadly trap for Drew, the one I walked into? Had it actually been for Drew? And were Holly’s death, the assault on Father Pete and Kathie Beliar, and the attack on me truly connected? Round and round my mind went, with no answers appearing.
