Chase met with Dan and Addie in the lobby, with news about the camera and Carl’s other possessions. “Travis said he found the video Carl took of all the action that night: you, tearing into the one killer as a cougar, some of the guys firing rounds, others running as cougars. All of it. It wasn’t real obvious as to who the people were, especially since they were camouflaged, and of course, he wouldn’t have a clue who the cats were. We’re the only ones who would know that. Certainly, the recording isn’t clear enough to really identify the men. Since he took a video of several of the scenes, I thought we all might want to look at them to see if we find any more evidence of anything.”

“He wasn’t just passing through when he heard gunshots ring out then,” Dan said, realizing Carl hadn’t been telling the truth.

Chase frowned. “That’s what he said.”

“It isn’t true. It would have taken him too long to get there and set up. I had to take down the first man when he fired at the SUV. Carl had to have been there, already set up, and taking the video, if he caught me on video taking the man out.”

“Hell.”

Dan pulled out his phone and called the Denver newspaper and put it on speaker. “Hi, this is Sheriff Dan Steinacker of Yuma Town. I’m calling to check on the credentials of a Carl Nelson. Does he still work as an investigative reporter for you?”

“He quit the paper some years ago. Yuma Town. Yeah, after he said he had a big story in Yuma Town and then nothing came of it, the boss was furious. It was all hush-hush, but in truth? I think he fired him. Carl Nelson isn’t there causing trouble and claiming he’s a reporter for us still, is he?”

“He’s been causing trouble all right. Thanks so much for your time.”

“Anytime, Sheriff. He had to turn in his credentials, so if he’s saying he’s working for us, he’s lying.”

“Thank you.” Dan ended the call and said to Chase, “Did he have any newspaper credentials on him?”

“Not that I saw. We all just assumed he was still working for the Denver paper.”

“Why would he be at your place at that particular time?” Addie asked. “How would he know we were headed to your place when we weren’t even there? Or that there would be some action that he could record? Why else be there? If he no longer works for a paper, who does he work for?”

“I think we need to talk with Carl again.” Dan, Addie, and Chase headed for the room, but Leyton wasn’t outside the room.

They rushed to reach it and pulled open the door. Leyton was trying to pin down Carl, the newly turned cougar, and yelled, “Someone get a tranquilizer!”

So much for questioning Carl now.
