Chapter 10: Second Attempt

Deuce was close. Chyrel came out with two folders after only ten minutes. “You guys aren’t going to believe this.” She handed Deuce and me a folder. “I made two copies.”

We all walked over to the other table where the light was better and sat down. I opened the folder and looked at the first sheet, with Tony looking over my shoulder. It was background on Stolski. He’d been an agent with the CIA for nearly ten years, moving from one country to another every year or two. When he left the Clandestine Service, he apparently did some work as a mercenary, even a few contracts for the Agency, itself.

The second page was a list of known accomplices and other agents he was close to that had also left the Agency. Each one had a picture and a short bio. The one at the top stood out, as he had left the Agency at the same time as Stolski. Kyle Parker had also worked with Stolski in four different countries over a span of three years with the Agency.

“Parker,” Deuce said.

“He’d be my guess, too,” I countered.

I flipped to the next page. Apparently, Chyrel had become adept at reading Deuce’s mind. It was Parker’s full bio. I glanced up at her and she grinned. Parker had also been hired as a freelance operator by the Agency a number of times. He had a strong background in explosives, too. Something else struck me then. I flipped back to Stolski’s bio and put them side by side. Both men had been hired by the Agency for freelance work a number of times each the year following their leaving the Agency, but neither in the last two years.

I looked up at Chyrel and said, “Can you get anything more on the last time both Stolski and Parker were hired by the Agency to do freelance work? Both did five or six jobs for them the first year after leaving, but neither in the last two years. Did they screw something up?”

“I’ll get right on it,” she said and started to turn.

“Chyrel,” Deuce said stopping her. “How hard would it be for you to follow their money?”

She cocked her head and grinned. “Oh, please.”

“Sorry. Let me know when you find something.”

I went back to the file. The next page contained evidence photos of the boat Stolski had rented. Besides finding the body, the Coast Guard found his weapons. He was armed with a 9mm Glock 17 and the rocket launcher was actually a Russian made SA-18, which explained it’s heat seeking ability. Next were several photos of a number of pieces of identification, with matching credit cards. In all, Stolski had passports, driver’s licenses, and credit cards for three different aliases. They looked like excellent forgeries.

“Get to the next page,” Deuce said.

I flipped the last of the pictures over and looked at the last sheet. It was a letter of commendation from the Station Chief in Karachi, Pakistan. I didn’t get
