Belching, Joe walked around to the passenger side. Madeline drove to the local Dollar General and backed into a corner spot away from the rest of the cars. He turned on the radio, then sat on the hood with Madeline and opened his phone.

“Hey Matt,” he said. “We’re in Constantine where they’re unloading in a barn. We’ll wait until dark before checking it out.”

“The vet’s dead.”

“How?”

“Another animal attack, but get this. The sheriff believes that meth somehow got into the vials for the animal inoculations, which caused them to go crazy. He’s blaming the vet.”

“You don’t think he did it?”

“No, it’s too easy setting him up. The doc left me a message yesterday morning. He knew something and left me a clue.”

“I’ll get the details when we get back. We have a guy in our trunk right now that we need to get rid of.”

“Alive or dead?”

“Madeline wanted to shoot him with her shoe, but I wouldn’t let her,” he replied as she punched him in the arm.

“What are you doing down there?”

“A guy pulled a gun on me and now he’s in our trunk. Do you know anyone at the state police post in White Pigeon?”

“Um, yeah, Robert Streeter, do you want me to make a call?” Matt asked.

“I need the guy held for at least three days, no questions asked.”

“Let me see what I can do. Give me twenty minutes before you get there.”

He flipped his cell closed and put his arm around Madeline. “You did great back there, but don’t do it again. I really thought you had your gun with you. Start carrying it.”

“You cleaned and loaded it for me?”

“Yeah. Be careful.”

“Thank you, and for the record, I’ve saved your life twice now. Are you sure you’re good at your job?” she asked.

“What are you talking about?”

“I stopped that guy from stabbing you at the Village Inn restaurant and now this one. You’re lucky I’m here to take care of you.”

“I am so lucky,” he whispered before kissing her.

Twenty minutes later, Joe backed into the closest parking spot to the front door of the White Pigeon Police Post. Madeline stayed in the car and untangled her hair while he walked into the two-story brick building. An officer came out with him. Joe opened the driver’s side door to pop open the trunk.

“These guys will only hold him for forty-eight hours. It’s not long enough. I need you to flash your badge. It’s in my duffle bag,” Joe whispered to Madeline.

After slipping on her heels, she motioned for the officer to join her in the building. Joe shut the trunk with the guy still inside. The officer held the door open for her. Two other officers sitting behind their desks stared.

“Gentlemen, we have a situation that I thought you already understood.” Holding her badge, she continued. “I’m assisting Agent Roberts of the FBI in a highly volatile case. Homeland Security needs your help in holding this man, who may be funding terrorists with drug money.”

“Yes, ma’am,” they replied in unison.
