Risky Undertaking (2014)
““I just found him. I swear.”
Romero drew his service pistol. “Sir, step forward. Slowly.”
Darren complied. Tremors visibly ran through his body. “I just got here.”
“You good with him?” I asked Romero. “I’ll check Eddie.”
Romero waved his pistol, motioning Darren to move to the side. I crouched by Eddie’s shoulders and felt his carotid artery. The skin was cool and the pulse nonexistent.
“He’s gone. I’m going to check Darren’s car.”
“My car?” Darren asked. “Don’t you need... a warrant?”
“Not to see if the engine’s still warm.” Before Darren could reply I was out the front door.
Although the morning sky was sunny, the air temperature still held an autumn chill. I stood in front of Darren’s Infiniti. Its gray surface was dry. I glanced at Eddie’s Camaro next to it.MoreLess
