Chapter 6

Josie spun back to her computer and began typing. “Okay, Doctor Walter J. Whittington was thirty-six years old, from Topeka, Kansas. Married with two children, he was a surgeon at Stormont Vail Hospital in Topeka for the past four years. Before that, he was in the ER at the same hospital, trauma surgeon. He didn’t have a particular specialty, I guess. Widow is Joyce Whittington, also thirty-six. Huh. Neither of them has a social media profile. That’s odd, nowadays.”

“Yeah, it is,” Pete said. “What about school, medical school? Where did he go?”

“According to the hospital website, he went to school in Chicago, University of Illinois. When I check the school for him, though, there’s only a mention of his medical degree, though, no other records. There’s no picture of him in any of their yearbooks, and it’s the same with Evanston High School, where he supposedly got his diploma.” She turned to Pete. “Sounds like maybe Doctor Whittington wasn’t always Doctor Whittington?”

“If he was in WitSec, that would explain him calling the Marshals. That’s who they’re supposed to call if they have a problem.”

“And there’s no way to find out who he might have actually been,” Chance said, “because they scrub all the records when you go into the program. The thing is, he’s been known as Whittington for years. Why would anyone want him dead now?”

Josie was tapping away on her keyboard. “Like, maybe, a mob boss who disappeared about ten years ago and was just found hiding in Argentina? Lorenzo Martinelli is being extradited back to the U.S. to face multiple murder charges in about two weeks, and one of the main witnesses against him was his nephew, who was fresh out of medical school at the time. The nephew was taken into protective custody and has not been seen since then. I can’t even find a picture of the guy.”

“Until now, I’d bet. Chance, we may be onto something big. If Johnson has found a way to get into the WitSec database, he could be giving up protected witnesses all over the...”

“Bingo! ” Josie cried suddenly. “We’re in, I cracked the password on the flash drive.”

Pete and Chance were up instantly and looking over Josie’s shoulder. She was looking through the files stored on the device, which were displayed as a series of folders. One by one, she was opening them up, and each one contained both photographs and documents related to particular individuals.

“Oh, damn,” Josie said as she opened the first photo in the fifth folder. “That’s Whittington, Pete.”

“Are you sure?” Chance asked. “To be honest, the guy wasn’t too recognizable after he hit the sidewalk.”

“That’s him,” she said. She opened another window and called up a news story about Whittington’s death. When she put the two pictures side by
