Carly snatches my cel from out of my jeans and sends it sailing into the thicket to our left. “You bitch,” I say, taking a step in the direction of my now absent phone. “Takes one to know one.” Carson shuts my door and gets back in the car. “Tel Logan I said hi,” Carly says before ditching into the passenger’s seat.

A plume of dust fol ows the tires, fil ing the air with the sweet scent of earth. Great. I head off in the direction of my phone. Shadows fal from every direction.
