Mandy, freckled and skinny and always peppy, opened the door and looked Kate up and down. "Playing football with the guys today? You look clobbered."
"Maybe wrestling a little," Kate allowed, smirking. "I had to tell someone."
"Come in and tell someone what?"
They went to sit in the den, where the family's TV and stereo system was. They slumped into chairs.
