To thine own self be true

by Judy Clemens

Halfway through Stella's sitting at Wolf Ink, her tattoo artist and his wife disappear into the back room. Stella dozes off; when she awakes, and they've not come back, she drives home. Before long, the police arrive to inform her that Mandy has been discovered dead behind the tattoo parlor, while Wolf is nowhere to be found.
