Chapter 11 teaser
"What's wrong, James?"
"It seems that a piece of equipment has gone missing from Cullen Enterprises. The vacuum cleaner used in the CEO's office wasn't in the storage shed when Victoria went in on Wednesday night. I'm assuming it was there when you worked on Tuesday."
"Of course it was there, James. I used it to vacuum the office. I also brought it back to the storage shed and locked it up when we left Wednesday morning."
"Yet it wasn't there when Victoria got there Wednesday night. There was no evidence of a break in. Either you left the shed unlocked and someone helped themselves, or you took it yourself."
"What? That's absurd."
"Be that as it may, the vacuum was an expensive piece of machinery. The cost of its replacement came out of your paycheck, which, by the way, wasn't even enough to cover the total charge. By rights you still owe Nomad $19. I suppose we'll take the last $19 from the few hours you still have coming to you for the work you did this week."
