Serenity stood in front of Cove’s parents’ house with her arms folded across her chest while the FBI crew loaded the Suburban onto a flatbed to be taken to the FBI forensics lab.

Lou and his team had been fabulous. She wished more local police departments worked as well with the Feds, but that would be asking too much.

She signed off on all the necessary paperwork and watched as the last of the police pulled away.

“How are you holding up?” Cove asked as he put a protective arm around her waist.

“I could use a stiff drink,” she admitted. “But I doubt that will happen any time soon, especially considering it’s close to midnight and no way in hell will my parents be okay with me taking the Amtrak back into the city tonight.”

“My folks have already asked me to make sure to escort you, if you decide to go home, but they’d prefer if we both stayed in upstate.” He smiled, cocking his head. “They even offered a bed, hinting they’d be okay if we took one room together.”

“My parents didn’t offer the same room, but they did say you were welcome.”

I’ve got a shit ton of files to go through that our resident genius pulled on potential whack jobs who might fit this bomber’s profile—”

He pressed his index finger over her mouth. “First, slow down and breathe.”

She inhaled sharply, letting it out slowly. Her pulse continued to beat out of control. She didn’t think her heart rate had slowed since she found out there had been a bomb under her seat.

“Second, why don’t you let me help you?”

Curling her fingers around his wrist, she pulled his hand away. She opened her mouth to protest, but he cut her off once again.

“You’re too close to this to see things from a different perspective. You might read things that aren’t there or shove things under the rug based on a preconceived notion about what you think we’re dealing with. While I don’t think you should be doing any of this tonight, I know you, and I get you won’t be able to shut your mind down until you at least try to make sense of it. But you need eyes. And you need them to be outside of the Bureau.”

She tilted her head. “Why do
