Lonnie,
you
said
Farrah
showed
up
at
the
accident
on
Goldenview
D
rive,

Mojo
said.


Yeah.
Just
moments
after
the
accident,

she
said.

He
came
from
the
south,
the
neighborhoods
instead
of
the
highway.

Mojo
turned
to
Mike
.

You
want
to
go
take
a
tour
down
that
road
and
see
what

s
there?


I

m
game,

Mike
said
.


You
guys
can

t
be
searching
anyone

s
property
without
a
warrant,

Caufield
said
.


No,
of
course
not,

Mojo
shook his head in denial
.

We

re
just
going
to
see
what

s
there.
If
there
is
anything
suspicious
,
we

ll
let
you
know.


I
do
mean
it,

Caufield
’s expression turned serious, almost scolding.
. “
D
on

t
go
snooping
around
on
anyone

s
property.
We
don

t
need
some
technicality
that
could
free
them
after
we
make
the
arrest.


Not
to
worry,

Mike
raised a placating hand
. “W
e

re
not
agents,
and
we

re
not
working
on
anything
for
the
FBI.
We

re
not
going
to
be
breaking
any
laws,
and
if
there
are
any
questions
,
you
have
perfect
deniability.


Yeah,
tell
that
to
the
judge,

Caufield
replied.


Will
do,

Mike
said
.

Hilde,
you
want
to
come
with
us
or
stay
here?


I

ll
stay,

she
said.

While
you
guys
are
over
there
,
I
want
to
get
on
the
FBI
database
and
do
some
digging
on
Farrah
and
anyone
else
involved.


I

ll
stay
with
Hilde,

Lonnie
said,
massaging
her
abdomen
.

I
don

t
feel
up
to
any
driving
right
now.

Marcus
and
Mike
walked
out
of
the
office.
Caufield led the women to an empty office a few doors down.

“You can do your research here,” Caufield motioned toward the computer on the desk. “Just log in with your normal FBI credentials and the network should pull up your profile from your home office computer.”

Hilde
turned
to
Caufield
.

Is
there
any
other
way
to
get
hold
of
Agents
Roberts
and
Warner?


Down
in
those
tunnels
,
there
’s
no
cell
phone
reception
,
so
you

re
going
have
to
wait
until
they
surface
for
lunch.

Lonnie
turned
to
look
out
the
window
and
saw
Marcus

F250
rumble
east on 6
th
, heading
out
of
downtown
toward
the
south
side
of
Anchorage.
The
dent
in
the
tailgate
darkened
with
the
shadow
cast
by
the
southern
sun.
As
his
truck
turned
the
corner
,
the
baby
jumped
in
her
womb.
