Chapter Nineteen

Reed had never seen Kaylee looking so bleak. Finding out that someone she called a friend was saying nasty things behind her back had to be devastating to a woman as sensitive as she was. Finding out your other so-called friends had been covering it up hadn’t helped either. He was starting to really dislike everyone around her. No wonder she had trust issues.

“I think you turn right here.” Kaylee was pointing to the map but Reed was looking at the road, not that there were any cars around. In a way this area reminded him of Montana in how the houses had miles between them and privacy from your neighbors.

He turned the truck onto a long dirt lane that led to an old farmhouse surrounded by a few trees. Mostly it was prairie country here. Driving, one could see for miles in any direction the land was so flat. It wasn’t something he was used to but it had a beauty all its own.

The home looked like it had seen better days with a sagging front porch and peeling paint. A couple of old cars were parked in the yard along with a rusted tractor. There was an old red barn to the back of the property along with cows, chickens, and horses.

Reed honked the horn before climbing out of the vehicle, wanting to be sure he gave ample notice to Walt. If there was one thing Reed had learned as a lawman was to never surprise a homeowner that had the potential to be well-armed.

The screen door swung open and Walt stepped out on the wooden porch but didn’t appear to have anything in his hands.

Reed hopped out of the truck and held out his hand in friendship hoping it would indicate that he wasn’t a threat. If Walt was Kaylee’s stalker they could be walking into a dangerous situation.

So far no one today had noticed his shoulder holster under his leather jacket. He was completely legal and had a permit but Kaylee didn’t look like the gun type so he hadn’t made a big deal about it.

The man squinted at him and loped down the steps to shake Reed’s hand.

“I wondered when you’d come here. You want to ask me some questions, don’t you?”

“I do. Can we come in? It’s pretty cold out here.”

Walt jerked his head toward the door and Reed pressed the button on the key fob unlocking the truck. Kaylee climbed down from the vehicle and joined them as they walked back into the house. They all settled into chairs at Walt’s kitchen table—Kaylee and Reed across from each other and Walt at the end.

The inside of the home was also shabby and run down except for a large desk in the corner of what was probably the dining room. A laptop computer with a large flat-screen monitor sat on the desk along with stacks of paper and books. There were several photos on the wall, some black and white along with knickknacks from various tourist locations.
