The Secret Cipher
“Tyler kept himself awake by guzzling lattes and pounding doughnuts. His gaming marathons had trained him to stay awake through the night, so I wasn’t worried that he’d fall asleep at the wheel.
But I was crazy worried that Ricardo would find us again.
Ethan checked to make sure the GPS thingy was turned off on his phone. I watched out the back window. It didn’t look like anyone was following. But how could I be sure? The Camels had stuck a tracking device under Great-Aunt Juniper’s skin. Ricard...o could have stuck one on Tyler’s car. How would we know until it was too late?
The prison camp was located fifty-seven miles from the nearest town. We’d run out of cash, and we couldn’t use the credit card because if we did, our parents would probably find out that we lied about spending the night in Boston. So rather than getting a room at the last hotel we passed, we drove to a rest stop and parked. Then we slept in the car. Pyrrha drifted off right away, her head on Tyler’s shoulder.MoreLess
