Every year. March 14th. I've never been audited, because the IRS eventually figures out that people who file early and attach footnotes to their footnotes are not the ones cheating. Ifloss regularly—obsessively, my dentist Dr. Morrison says, though she seems unconvinced that I actually do it when she peers into my mouth like she's looking for evidence of a crime. I drive a 2019 Honda Civic with a bumper sticker that says \"I'd Rather Be Auditing,\" which was a gift from my sister Rhonda, who thinks accountants have a sense of humor and, bless her, has never been proven right. The bumper sticker has faded to a salmon color that suggests it's been through more weather than I have.  \nMy name is Roger Hodge. I'm forty-two years old, a senior accountant at Kepler & Associates in a cube that smells vaguely of my lunch and permanently of the carpet cleaner they use on Fridays, and on Saturdays I play golf at Cobalt Ridge Golf Course—a mid-tier public course in the kind of suburb where the most exciting thing that happens is a coyote sighting ora debate about mulch that somehow makes it to the city council agenda. The kind of place where the Italian restaurant's buffet has been identical since 2008 and the Facebook groups have very strong opinions about streetlight placement. Passionate opinions. Opinions that spawn three-hundredcomment threads and neighborhood feuds.  \nI'm telling you all of this so you understand that what happened next was, statistically speaking, the most unlikely event of my life. And I once accidentally cc'd the entire company on an email meant for my therapist—just the line \"I think my inability to find meaning in quarterly reports is connected to my fear of commitment\"—so the bar for unlikely events was already extraordinarily high.  \nIt was a Saturday in October. Perfect golf weather—low sixties, no wind, the sky the pale blue of something photoshopped, the kind where the light hits the grass and makes even the scrubby rough look deliberate. The kind that reminded me why I played golf instead of doing anything else with my Saturday mornings. No crowds. No obligations. Just eighteen holes of managed disappointment and the occasional shot that didn't completely humiliate me.  \nI'd arrived at 7:45 AM—my preferred prep time. The parking lot at Cobalt Ridge was already half-full with the early birds: retirees, serious golfers, the kind of people for whom golf was a religion and Saturday morning was worship. I paid the twenty-eight-dollar greens fee, grabbed my cart (number 47, I was starting to recognize them), and went to warm up atthe range. Hit about thirty balls. My swing felt like a rusty gate for the first ten, then settled into something vaguely coherent. The range balls were scuffed and yellow and flew slightly different than real balls, but that was th","cbCaida2TGJMZOmV","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaida2TGJMZOmV","pdf",1371920,225,"English","en",105,"# Contents\n## The Nineteenth Hole\n## Double Bogey\n## The Man at Table Six\n## Detective Fierro's Corkboard\n## The Back Room at Colucci's\n## The Girl with the Screens\n## Follow the Money\n## The Third Ball\n## Ridgeline\n## The Target List\n## The Councilman's Dog\n## What ScriptKitty Found\n## Mr. Moretti's Resume\n## Fierro's Warrant\n## Booked\n## The Other Side of the Glass\n## Following the Money\n## Cobalt Crossing After Dark\n## The Reckoning at Ridgeline\n## Balanced Ledger\n## Epilogue: The Fourteenth Hole","[{\"question\":\"Who is the main character in The Accidental Assassin?\",\"answer\":\"The story follows Roger Hodge, a senior accountant who believes he is not a dangerous man and lives by meticulous habits.\"},{\"question\":\"Where does the narrative begin?\",\"answer\":\"It begins during a Saturday golf outing at Cobalt Ridge Golf Course, starting with the Nineteenth Hole.\"},{\"question\":\"What theme drives the plot forward?\",\"answer\":\"Hidden connections and financial clues propel the investigation, with “following the money” recurring as a central thread.\"}]","The Accidental Assassin -
