Korgan shook his head. “Baldwin wasn’t the sharpest tool in the shed. Gilroy said once Baldwin reached the castle, he could give precise directions how to get around inside. But he paid no attention when Masenak was flying them up there. He only knew they were heading for the south range. When they landed, he could only remember that it was a few miles from the landing pad to the castle. They were met by a few guards and several servants, who appeared to be locals, who had been sent to carry their luggage. He thought he might have seen a stream when the helicopter was descending.”

“That’s all?”

“I guarantee that’s all Baldwin remembered. Gilroy doesn’t make mistakes when he’s interrogating. Everything Baldwin knew, we know.” His lips tightened. “And I’m afraid that you won’t be able to reexamine him if you’re not satisfied. He’s no longer with us. I used him to lure Masenak to the helicopter pad. I hope you won’t be upset.”

After all the ugliness and cruelty that Baldwin had committed? “Only that it did no good.” She got to her feet. “The south range. We’ll have to start there. And if those servants were locals, then they probably came from villages in those mountains. Can you send someone up there right away to start asking questions?”

“Already done,” he said quietly. “Gilroy started up there the minute the aerial reconnaissance report came in. He speaks the language, and he established Berber contacts when I sent him to the Atlas Mountains last year to try to find answers about Masenak. He’ll meet us at Akbar, one of the largest villages in the foothills, when we arrive there sometime after midnight tonight.” He shrugged. “Who knows? There might even be a chance he might have info for us by that time.”

“Gilroy again. He appears to be all over the place.”

“What good is it to have an Indiana Jones around if you don’t use him? Besides, he’s very pissed off and worried about Sasha and is craving blood.”

“So am I. Can we please leave now? I have to get moving. You can fill me in on anything else I should know on the plane to Morocco. I only have to stop by and talk to Margaret and Jeanne first.”

“I’ll meet you in the lobby.” He grabbed her duffel from the bed. “Tell Margaret I’ll arrange for transport for her and Juno as soon as she calls to say she’s ready.”

“It will probably be day after tomorrow.” She wished it was sooner. But she couldn’t expect Margaret to leave Jeanne until she had her settled. They didn’t have a location for Jubaldar yet. They weren’t even positive Sasha had been taken there. Still, it would be a logical move for Masenak to bring her there—that had been his intention since the kidnapping.
