JUST BEFORE THE CORNER of Further Lane and Two Mile Hollow, Wells pulled over and dropped the CB1000’s kickstand, placing a flattened Coke can under the base so the stand wouldn’t sink into the earth and tip the Honda over.

From the minivan, he pulled out the mountain bike he’d bought two days before. Next to the CB1000, the bicycle looked almost toylike. But the bike had one great advantage over the motorcycle. It was silent. Wells took off his helmet and pulled a black mask over his face.

“You still want to do this?” he said. “Because we don’t have to—”

“Please. It’s easy for the world’s hottest single aunt to get lost in East Hampton after she’s had a few.”

Exley popped open a peach wine cooler and took a swallow, then poured a couple drops onto her blouse, which was open two buttons, enough to reveal a black lace bra that left little about her breasts to the imagination.

“That ought to distract them,” she said. “Just another overaged drunk chick looking for love.”

“Jennifer. Be careful. If something goes wrong, I want you to go, ditch me—”

But she’d already rolled off.

He didn’t fully understand Exley. He supposed he never would. She loved her kids terribly, he was sure. Yet here she was again, risking her life to help him. Was she doing this for him? For the adventure? Both? Wells wished he could ask.
