Hostage (2001)
“'Jorgenson?' 'Here, Chief.' 'Stand by.' Talley was at the rear of Smith's property with a Sheriff's tac officer named Hobbs. Hobbs had a Remington Model 700 sniper rifle fitted with a night-vision scope. The chamber was clear and the magazine empty. Talley carried a shotgun fixed with the Starflash grenade.
'Let me see.' Talley took the rifle from Hobbs and focused the scope on the French doors. He had been peering over the top of the wall for almost six minutes, waiting for Thomas to call. Jen...nifer and Krupchek were in the kitchen. He thought Kevin was in the family room, but he wasn't sure. Dennis passed through the kitchen twice. He had exited toward the master bedroom three minutes earlier and had not returned. Talley thought he was probably in the safety room, watching the perimeter on the monitors.
Talley's phone rang. He was expecting it, but he wasn't ready for it. He jumped, startled.
Hobbs whispered, 'Easy.' Talley handed the rifle back to Hobbs, then answered, his voice low.MoreLess
