Drew watched Staci until she disappeared up the stairs. He grabbed a Hook House Ale out of the fridge and tossed it to Noe. “You’re here about Martel?”

Noe nodded.

“Were you close?” Drew asked, wondering whether Noe had heard about Martel’s burial by hops.

“Barely knew him, my friend.” Noe grinned and unscrewed the top of his bottle of ale. “I heard the killer concealed him in a pile of hops. None of that hops is in here, I take it?” He lifted his bottle.

Drew shrugged. “Beer takes longer than a day to brew,” he said noncommittally. “We disposed of the offending hops.”

“Very good.” Noe raised his bottle toward Drew’s. “To catching the killer.”

Drew clinked his bottle against Noe’s. “Catching a killer.” Though he wondered. Catching the killer just might lose him Staci forever. Somehow that was beginning to matter more and more to him.

“Is this Mandy hot?” Noe asked.

“Smoking. And she’s wise to spies so be careful. Her late husband was a friend of mine from The Farm.” Drew’s cell buzzed. He pulled it out of his pocket. Langley was texting. He turned to Noe. “I have to take this. Make yourself at home.”

Drew retreated to the most private room in the condo—the tiny main-floor bathroom—and shut the door. The bathroom was completely shielded and soundproofed. As a side benefit, the lighting was good, too. Drew was certain Noe, who was a top-notch spy, was already trying to intercept Drew’s text.

A message came up on Drew’s phone from headquarters.

Excellent intel you collected. The Gardener is in Victoria. The Fisherman plans to visit the gardens next weekend. This is the opportunity we’ve been waiting for to bring them both in.

The brass wanted to apprehend Sam outside the country. Better for everyone that way. Less chance of someone raising a fuss. NCS could take him to a top-secret interrogation facility and find out what he knew.

Say hello to Noe. Canada will cooperate fully.

Still tracking the Fisherman’s financials. Make sure we get the Fisherman in hand before the Canadians grab him. Canada doesn’t even have a damn death penalty.

Drew read the message again to make sure he had all the details right. In the good old days of spying, a tape would self-destruct or a spy would have to eat and swallow a handwritten message. Drew simply hit DELETE and every trace of the message vanished. No computer genius could reconstruct it no matter how many software tricks and Porn Sticks were used.

Drew sat for a moment, thinking. Being with Staci again was giving him ideas he’d probably be better off not entertaining.

Is there a way to complete the mission and get the girl?
