When Desie stepped aboard, the pilot asked, “Where’s your friend?”Desie was flustered; she thought he meant the kidnapper.“The dog,” said the pilot. “Mr. Stoat said you were traveling with a dog.”“He was mistaken. I’m alone.”The plane took off and banked to the west. Desie expected it to turn southbound, but it didn’t. Squinting into the sun, she leaned forward and tried to raise her voice above the engines.“Where are you going?”“One more stop,” the pilot said over his shoulder. “Panama City.”“...What for?” Desie asked, but he didn’t hear her.It was a choppy and uncomfortable flight, more than an hour, and Desie was steaming by the time they got there. Palmer should have come up on the plane to pick her up; that’s what a husband ought to do when his wife is freed from a kidnapping. At the least, he should have directed the pilot to bring her straight home, instead of making her sit through a bumpy add-on leg. Desie assumed Palmer was taking advantage of the plane’s availability to pick up one of his big-shot cronies, thereby saving a few bucks on a separate charter.MoreLess
