Eve drew a deep breath. “I'll do it.”
“I'm glad. Believe me, it's best for everyone.”
“I don't care about everyone. If I did, I wouldn't be dealing with you. Listen to me. I want you to set me and my mother up somewhere out of the country, as you promised. I want you to call off your dogs after Logan and I want you to leave Joe Quinn alone.”
“And you want Bonnie.”

“No. I don't know if your promise is good enough. I'm taking a big chance. Who's to say you won't go back on your word once you have the skull?”
“You'll still have the DNA records. You know they could cause me a great deal of trouble.”
“Perhaps not enough without the skull.”
“Then, what are you asking?”
“I'm not asking, I'm demanding. I want to see you. I want you to pick up the skull.”MoreLess
