At the sight of Hope’s car half a block ahead of him, relief flooded his body and Brice let go of the mental breath he been holding. “I see you,” he said into his phone. “I’m three cars back.”

“Now what do we do?” She came to a stop at a stoplight.

His phone dinged with an incoming text. Grey.

Safe house, it said. Ask for Ling-Ling. Tell her I sent you. Attached were GPS coordinates.

How does he do that?

Brice drummed his fingers on the steering wheel, anxious for traffic to start moving again. “Let me pass you in the next block and then follow me.”

“Where we going?”

“Somewhere safe.” I hope.

The light changed and traffic began to flow. Hope did as instructed, and soon Brice was in the lead. He followed the GPS coordinates, all the while listening to Hope ream him out.

“I knew I shouldn’t have let you and Tony hammer on Joel like that,” she said. “He didn’t do anything except make a stupid mistake accepting a vacation from a lobbyist to impress his girlfriend. And now I’m paying for it instead of him because I can’t tell my boss how you had Teeg illegally hack into the Supreme Court email system. Even if I don’t lose my job over this, it will be a blot on my record forever. I’ll never make it to the White House now. In fact, I might as well kiss any job in our nation’s capital buh-bye.”

Had she even heard what he’d said about someone being after them? At least she was still alive to complain. Thank God.

Probably not the best time to tell her about his little B&E earlier with Gerard.

But when I catch up to that pompous little ass, Joel, he won’t know what hit him. “Our lives could be in danger, Hope. Can you stop bitching me out long enough for me to get us to a safe place?”

Silence from the phone met his ears.

He’d take that as agreement.

The arch welcoming them to Chinatown loomed ahead. The place they were heading to was on I Street. Where the hell was Grey taking them? Brice turned north on 7th Street before the arch. Several American businesses lined the street, their names in Chinese as well as English.

“If you think Kung Pao Chicken with a side of fried rice is going to make me feel better,” Hope said through the phone, “you’re sadly mistaken.”

Brice followed the GPS around the corner to an alley. Should he go down it? The coordinates indicated the place was in the middle of the block.

He took the plunge, driving into the alley. In his rearview, he saw Hope hesitate at the entrance.

“Are you sure about this?” Her voice sounded small and unsure. A trick of the speakerphone, he assured himself. She was going to beat his ass as soon as she had the opportunity.

Although he wasn’t sure about anything at the moment, he lied. “Of course.”

A section of parking opened up just past a line of dumpsters. As he wheeled into one of the open spots, he was facing the back of a nail salon.
