She glanced between them, and Lindsey felt the same speculation that had been in the eyes of the cast and crew when she and Sully had landed on the mattress.

“There was an accident at the theater,” she began.

“It wasn’t an accident,” Sully corrected her. “Someone pushed Lindsey off of the balcony.”

“What?” Emma cried. “Are you all right? Did you see the person? When did this happen, exactly?”

“I’m fine,” Lindsey said. “Sully’s quick thinking saved me. I didn’t see the person. I was hit from behind and I went sailing over the rail but managed to catch myself with a hand and a leg on the edge. I’d say it happened about ten to fifteen minutes after you left with Dylan.”

“So, whoever did it knew that I wasn’t there,” Emma said. She looked at Lindsey and frowned. “Why you?”

“I don’t know,” Lindsey said. “Violet seems to think it was someone who wants to shut the show down. That whoever it is went after Robbie first and then when that didn’t work, he looked for an opportunity to cause another accident that would stop the show.”

“She’s thinking it might be Buchanan,” Sully said.

Emma nodded as if she’d already been thinking the same thing.

“Billionaire CEOs don’t take the word no very well,” Emma said. “And I gather that Violet and Charlene have shut him out of their lives pretty effectively.”

“Would he be that vicious because he didn’t get his way?” Lindsey asked. “It seems counterproductive if he really wants a relationship with them.”

“It does, but you’re talking about a guy who moved his manufacturing business to a third world country where the average age of his workers is eleven,” Emma said. “I think he pays them a whopping twenty-five cents a day. From what I gather, he’s not exactly a touchy-feely kind of guy.”

“No wonder Charlene wants nothing to do with him,” Lindsey said. “Still, he must realize that if he wants his daughter in his life, this is the wrong way to go about getting her attention.”

“Some people respond very badly to rejection,” Sully said. “If he’s a bully, he might think that this is the way to get her to respond to him.”

“Through fear?” Lindsey asked. “Obviously he doesn’t realize that Violet and Charlene are made of tougher stuff.”

“If it’s him,” Emma said. “And I can see why Violet suspects him, but there are a lot of people who had it in for Robbie. Despite his brilliance as an actor, his personal life was a train wreck. And as for you being a target, he does have a wife and an ex-girlfriend who might not have been thrilled with his interest in you.”

“Maybe,” Lindsey said. She refused to look at Sully to see what he thought of this statement.
