Hawk walked over to where Ziegler and Barron were standing.

“Good morning, Hawk,” Ziegler said. “I understand you’re feeling wired this morning.”

Hawk laughed. “You could say that.”

“That’s it, smile. You’re live,” Barron said. “Why don’t we head down to the gazebo to start out? Special Agent Romo wants you to move around the grounds today and pretend to work with the grounds crew. There are special agents that will move with you, but without being conspicuous. If the bounty hunter is here, and our intel says he is, he might decide to make his move. That’s what we want.”

“Okay,” Hawk said. “Can you explain what you anticipate his move might look like?”

Barron nodded. “If you’re by yourself where he has some breathing room, we expect he’ll start to slowly close in. The special agents in the command center will have him spotted on surveillance monitors and tell you where he is and what he’s doing, and any moves you need to make. You’ll hear everything. You need to trust us without questioning. You may have just seconds to respond. Understand?”

Hawk nodded, his stomach feeling as if a small army were marching across it in spiked shoes.

Ziegler put his hand on Hawk’s shoulder. “In other words, if command says to walk ten feet and stop, you do it. If they say turn left and walk over to Flutter’s, do it. As long as they’re in control of what you do, they can protect you. Don’t surprise them.”

“All right,” Hawk said. “I’m a robot.”

“Hawk, this is Special Agent Romo in the command center. You’re coming in loud and clear, and we’ve got you on visual. I don’t want you to worry about a thing. Remember, the bounty hunter’s not going to harm you while you’re out in public. His goal is to get you alone where he can question you. We’re not going to let that happen. That’s why it’s so important that you trust and obey our commands. And look natural.”

“I understand, sir.” Hawk shuddered. This whole thing was downright creepy. His eyes scanned the back lawn at Angel View. He saw a few guests jogging. A man and woman and two kids heading for the pier. And an elderly couple walking their West Highland terrier.

“You ready to get to work?” Barron said.

Hawk nodded. “Sure. So what am I doing?”

“You’re going to train your grounds crew,” Ziegler said. “Do what you’d normally do if we weren’t here. Just keep communicating with the command center so we’re all on the same page.”
