Cry Uncle
“Mick asked, “exactly what are you saying?”
“I’m saying, I got a line on her driver’s license.”
Mick pressed the mute button on the remote control and leaned back in the overstuffed chair. The silent drama being played out on the television screen across the room from him—some gonzo was throttling some lady—was a scene Mick would ordinarily have found engrossing. But Tony’s news was even more engrossing, even if he didn’t trust the chump from here till tomorrow. Sometimes he wondered whether the... only good thing about having Tony on his payroll was that Tony’s fellow police officers believed him when he said Miss Hayes wasn’t in any danger from Mick.
But other than keeping the Seattle Police Department out of Mick’s hair while he tried to put the bitch out of commission, Tony hadn’t delivered. Or more precisely, he hadn’t delivered enough. Mick had been able to trace her credit-card charges as far east as St. Louis, but from that point on she’d disappeared into the black hole of cash purchases, leaving no records, no trail.MoreLess
