Chance yanked the torn, bloody clothes out of the closet. He tossed his bomber jacket on the bed. He dug around in another bag and pulled out his wallet and flipped it open to see his ID. Chance Carter. Except that wasn’t his birth name. He’d been forced to change it all and build a new life. He never should have left the armed forces of the United States of God Bless America. Crashing Ole Blue had caused all this garbage to resurface, and he pushed it back down to be dealt with another day.

He also found credit cards and some cash. Relieved, he exhaled. But no cell phone. Probably destroyed in the crash. He needed to disappear until he figured things out. He’d get a new cell and call the NTSB about the crash and put them off for a few days. In the meantime, he needed clothes.

Chance peeked around the curtain and found the nameless patient still snoring. He crept over to the other small closet and found a few belongings inside.

Sorry, buddy. Then he quickly changed into the man’s newer, fresh clothes. He looked through his wallet to find his driver’s license. Ron Howell. Chance hoped the sick guy had someone who cared and would bring him more clothes. Chance couldn’t know if and when he’d be in a position to replace what he’d taken.

Despite a rip in the arm, Chance donned his beloved bomber jacket on the way out of the hospital.

FIVE

Jim Raymond had sold insurance, and his face was on billboards all over the county.

Stunned, Jack stared down at Jim’s lifeless body. A few nuances caught his attention and spiked his suspicions. The man had taken a fatal fall. Had he been pushed or had he been murdered and then his body dumped here, of all places? In millions of acres of national forest, some designated wilderness regions, Jim’s body might never have been found if a SAR team hadn’t been dispersed to find those twins.

Jack hated the way his thoughts automatically went to the worst-case scenario, but his experience in law enforcement had paved the way for a thousand possible circumstances surrounding Jim’s demise to rush through Jack’s mind. He wanted the truth about what happened.
