The book of Names
“the male voice taunted in David’s ear. “Your little girl can’t come to the phone right now.”
He felt the blood draining from his face. “Who is this? Where’s my daughter?”
“You know who this is, David,” the man mocked. “You have something that belongs to me. And I have something that belongs to you.”
David did know then. He didn’t know how, but in the same way that the names had always come to him, this one did, too.
Crispin Mueller.
“What do you want, Mueller?”
He heard a savage laugh. The line... beeped once and went dead.
“What’s going on?” Yael gripped his arm as David stared openmouthed at the phone.
“Mueller has Stacy,” he croaked. “And I don’t know where. The bastard hung up on me.”
Furiously, he entered Stacy’s phone number. His body felt like a block of ice as a busy signal bleated into his ear.
There was no doubt now. Crispin was a Gnoseos.
And Stacy . . . Stacy is a Lamed Vovnik. Just like the others in my journal.
He was numb. Numb with shock and the realization that Yael and her father were right.MoreLess
