“What did you do?”
“I didn’t do anything.”
“Where is she?”
Patrick looks at me.
“Navarro has her.”
The loading bay becomes silent.
Sean grabs the back of Patrick’s jacket.
“Where is Navarro taking Sally?”
“To the bus station.”
“Why?”
Patrick’s eyes move to the fake key lying in the gravel outside.
“He needs her to open the locker.”
“The key opens it,” I say.
“No.”
Patrick laughs.
“The key gets you through the first door.”
Frank closes his eyes.
“What is inside that locker?” Sean asks.
Patrick looks at all seven Iron Ridge Protectors surrounding him.
Then he looks at me.
“Enough evidence to destroy Navarro.”
His smile disappears.
“And enough explosives to destroy everyone who tries to take it.”

Patrick’s warning echoes through the loading building.
Sean pulls him to his feet.
“If Navarro has Sally, you’re going to tell us where he took her.”
Patrick laughs.
