We wanted the best home alarm that you could get.  It turns out that Jim and Sue had been robbed again.  Not more than 6 weeks after they had first been broken into.  They had paid a lot of money to install a good alarm system.  They thought they were fairly safe, yet it was their house that was broken into.  This made no sense, especially since the homes to either side had no alarms, and our house across the street didn't either.  This made no sense to the cops either.  The detective in charge of the case was beginning to ask some questions that made Jim and Sue uncomfortable.  The detective wanted to know where they were the evening all this happened.  Sue had been at a teacher's conference, and Jim had been at his support group for diabetes.  Tara and I began to speculate.  We really didn't know them that well, and wondered about a few things. They always seemed to have just tons of money, and Jim didn't seem to do much.  He was home almost every day during working hours.  Jim was over one night and was worried.  The police seem to think that the robberies at their house anyway were different from the rest in the neighborhood.
