Ransomed Dreams
“How fitting.
Tom stormed through his house, gathering the last of his things and throwing clothes into his carry-on. He’d buy new toiletries on the way out of town. Who cared if his fast flight tipped the FBI that he was the inside man? They’d figure it out soon enough, what with super agent Kessler on the job.
A child. Joe had tried to shoot a child.
One more reason not to look in the mirror.
He stopped in front of his favorite lighthouse picture. Second guesses about his flight overseas made ...his breathing quicken. He’d never see his one-of-a-kind art pieces again. And he couldn’t afford to replace them after needing surgery and phony paperwork to start another life.
Even with the changes, he’d always be a hunted man. Someone like Joe, who could stay hidden right under the FBI’s noses, would track him to the ends of the earth and back.
Joe had made it clear his job wasn’t finished unless body bags left Hope Ridge. They hadn’t on Wednesday.
And if Tom had anything to do with it, they never would.MoreLess
