“No. Your real name and identity before. Chief Warrant Officer . . .” He trailed off. True to his words. No names.

Chance couldn’t believe it.

“I know how you’re connected now, and thanks to you, I also know who’s behind it. Thanks for the intel.”

“What intel? I haven’t told you anything. What are you talking about?”

Darth Maul pulled a photograph from his pocket and slid it forward to Chance. Chance reached across the booth and grabbed him by the collar. This guy knew more than he was sharing, and Chance wanted answers.

Darth Maul gave him a name. That information confused Chance, and he released the man, who slipped out of the booth and walked away.

Chance had watched the cops head out the front door ahead of Darth Maul. Myriad emotions had spiked through his head. This had gone on too long and too far.

Chance could probably expect to greet a few cops himself on the way out the front door. Maybe even the back. He didn’t have time for the cops. He had to end this before it was too late and someone else ended up dead. Chance had seen it in the man’s eyes—he was a killer. Darth Maul didn’t care about the package. He only cared about who was behind the deliveries. Just like Chance. And Darth Maul had figured it all out by simply sitting here looking at Chance.

He stared down at what Darth Maul had left behind. How had the man gotten his hands on this picture? Chance and his crew—maintenance guys and his copilot/gunner—in front of an Apache helicopter.

FIFTY-ONE

Jack and Terra kept to the shadows as they made it to Jack’s vehicle and jumped in. He instructed the two deputies to back off and wait for further instructions.

“I don’t think Leif saw us.” Jack started the vehicle. “He’s getting into his truck.”

“Good thing we left first,” she said. “But you had wanted to question the guy who we presume is the pilot. I didn’t get a good look at him.”

“And I still intend to question him.” Jack got on his cell and instructed the deputies to enter the bar and bring the pilot in for questioning about the plane crash and Jim’s death. He also requested someone remain at the back in case Carter tried to slip through their hands.

Glancing at her, Jack ended the call. Leif pulled from the curb. Jack waited for another vehicle to get behind Leif, then Jack steered onto the street. The car in front of Jack turned, so he kept pace several car-lengths back from Leif as he drove them out of town toward farmland—fields of wheat, soy, and corn.
