TWELVE

“We’ve picked up movement in Vikersund.”

Tam stopped pacing, and faced the technician who was bent over a laptop computer, a pair of noise-canceling earphones settled around his head. Nodding emphatically, the agent went on. “A small surgical team was spotted heading into the mountains a few hours after our boys.”

Tam’s face fell. “Holy sh—” She stopped herself, not wanting to make another deposit into her swear jar. But, she knew with a strike team inbound, she’d most likely be ponying up a hefty sum by the end of the day.

“Get boots on the ground, mine included,” she calmly ordered. “We aren’t losing civilians in the field.” Not only were they civilians, but it was Dane and Bones. While friends were hard to come by in her line of work, Maddock’s crew were some of the closest people to it. She’d hate to have to tell the others back home that they died on an op that she organized.

“Roger that,” the agent replied, getting to work. “We’re in the air in fifteen.”

Tam headed for the apartment door, never looking back. “Make it ten.”

She’d rented the ski lodge’s uppermost floor a few days before with the intent of utilizing its rooftop feature. Helicopter tours were a popular attraction in the area. The surrounding fjords offered spectators a magical view for those willing to pay top dollar for the services.

Tam booked all the tours too. She and three others would board the chartered helo, disguising themselves as nothing more than American visitors. She’d even added a sizable bonus to keep the pilot’s mouth shut should they need to land, something that was strictly prohibited.

Swinging open the front door, she crossed the hall and keyed open the neighboring room. Entering, she slammed it shut in frustration, leaning up against it. Closing her eyes, she took a moment to knead away a headache.

She’d need to be ready in five minutes. Thankfully, she was already dressed for an outdoor excursion, just in case. Tam believed in being ready for anything at any time. The only thing missing from her person was her gear, and she’d have to choose that carefully. They’d have to travel light in order to keep their cover intact. She had a small arsenal on hand, but openly carrying assault weapons would be a dead giveaway. On the other hand, if Maddock and Bones really needed her help... If whatever they had run up against was too big for them to handle, then showing up to the fight armed with pea-shooters wasn’t going to do them any good.

She mentally went through every curse she could think of and promised herself to use the future swear jar money to buy the guys a few when they got back. If they get back, she thought, hating herself for not going with them. She trusted Maddock and Bones explicitly, but still preferred to stay in control whenever she could. Coordinating agents in the field remotely wasn’t the same as true control, though. Whether they lived or died, she’d still be safe somewhere else, listening to their last breaths over their comms.
