TessIt had been almost two months since the last incident with Grier. He still wasn’t drinking, or at least he was limiting himself and had been on his best behavior.
It was almost Thanksgiving and we were hosting a big dinner. My parents were coming to town and his parents and older brother were coming as well.
I was glad that my family was coming into town as a buffer. I always felt lost in the shop talk when I was around his family. His mother was a retired detective with the Buffalo PD, his father was an attorney and his older brother was an active detective with the Amherst PD.
Tucker told me that his mom, dad and younger brother were coming to visit him. They had never been this far North. He said he had to tell them repeatedly that they weren’t going to see the Statue of Liberty.
