After a while, Gale took over the driving. They were heading west, into the sun, and the glare was giving Sean a headache. U.S.-550 was the kind of road that ribbons across the wide-open desert, and on a hot summer evening you could almost see a band of cowboys, lost in time, galloping across the sagebrush in a cloud of dust.

Farmington was the last big town. After that, traffic, already thin, would trickle down to almost nothing. The NSA was staying well back as to not raise suspicions, and they had other ways of tracking. Busman wasn’t worried.

Sean stayed quiet as Gale and Rip discussed plans. “We’ll make it to Canyon de Chelly tonight and put all this great camping gear to use.”

“Thanks for getting all that Sean,” Gale said.

“Sure. I like shopping when someone else pays,” Sean said. “Why Canyon de Chelly?”

“I’ve got a buddy there who will hide us for as long as necessary,” Rip said.

“Canyon de Chelly is on the Navajo Reservation, right? So your friend is Navajo?” Gale asked.

“Yeah. Is that okay?”

“Of course. I’m just making sure three white fugitives will be welcome in Indian country,” Gale said, laughing.

“The Navajo Nation is the largest Native American reservation. We’re talking more than 27,000 square miles across northeastern Arizona, and stretching into New Mexico and Utah.”

“Sounds like a great place to hide.”

“It’s very remote, and Tahoma is a good friend. We met eight or nine years ago on a dig.”

“Can the government trace your friendship?” Gale asked.

“Not likely,” Rip said. The NSA technician in charge of monitoring the audio in the car couldn’t help but smirk.

“Thanks to Sean showing up, we may have finally lost the feds. Now maybe we’ll have time to figure this thing out.”

When they stopped for gas at a busy Farmington station, Sean went to the restroom. Busman came in after him and found Sean standing in front of a urinal.

“We need more conversation about the Eysen.”

“Rip already suspects something. I don’t want to be too pushy.”

“We’ve heard no indication he suspects anything.”

“You aren’t looking at his face.”

“Relax, Sean. Everything is going great.” Busman smiled, but then turned serious. “Our patience isn’t endless. I’d like to have all the details we need in the next twenty-four hours. Think you can handle that?”

“No.”

“Yes, you can.”

“I’m just not sure what to do.”

“Be yourself. Right now, you’re acting too nervous. Joke around with them. Flirt with Gale.”

“I’m not really in a joking mood.”

“This is important. Remember our deal. You get what you want, we get what we want.”

“Okay. I’ll try.”

“Good. And Sean, don’t forget to wash your hands.”
