CHAPTER ELEVEN
Somehow the news vultures had glommed on to the fact that another victim had been found and this one was alive.
Hospital security had already run them out of the E.R., and Beaudry had finished things by banning them from the hospital property altogether. Now they were camped out on the other side of the street with their long-range lenses, hoping for a scoop.
Tate was concerned that the paparazzi types were arriving in the wake of the legit media, because that was how the guy from Doc Tuttleâs office had come across. And now, without a phone, he had no way of knowing if Wade had already rescued Nola up, plus he was worried the latest victim wouldnât wake up.
Beaudry had already left the hospital to interview Jeff Wilson, the young man whoâd found the body, and Tate was pacing the floor when Cameron showed up, bringing Tateâs phone with him.
âYour girlâs safe and sound with Wade,â he said as he put the phone in Tateâs palm. âBeaudry called. He said heâd take us out to the recovery site whenever weâre ready. Whatâs happening with the vic?â
âTheyâre still working on him,â Tate said.
âAny idea as to when the attack happened?â
âThey made a guess that it was sometime between midnight and daybreak today.â
âDamn it. So he did start up again after the storm, just like you thought.â
Tate shook his head. âIâm not sure. This one is different.â
Cameron frowned. âWhat do you mean?â
âHe wasnât shot in the head. He has a chest wound. And all of the others were clean kills. Would he be that far off?â
âWell, he used a pistol on all the others, then used a knife on Nola,â Cameron said.
âBut circumstances could have forced him to change his M.O. He could hardly use a gun in such a crowded environment and not be noticed. And speaking of Nola, is she really okay?â
âI told you, sheâs fine. She said she wasnât used to doing nothing, and since she didnât have her art supplies, she was going to cook.â
Tate nodded. âSheâs a good cook. Thatâs something to look forward to.â
âWhat happened with the photographer in the doctorâs office?â
âI donât think heâs with any of the legit news outfits. He snuck in when the receptionist stepped away from the desk. I think heâs paparazzi. Those guys are wily, and gutsy enough to do anything for a photo they can sell.â
âOther than create more drama for Nola, it canât really hurt us, because the killer already knows about her.â
Tate nodded, but his eye was still on the E.R. bay where the victim was being worked on. As they were waiting, the doctor stepped out.
âAgent Benton, weâre taking him to surgery. I can tell you that his name is Bobby PreJean. Heâs a local, and still unconscious. You wonât be able to talk to him for several hours, if at all. Iâm sorry.â
Tate sighed. âWe understand. Thank you, Doctor. Weâll check back later.â
âNow what?â Cameron asked.
âLetâs take Beaudry up on his offer to take us out to the scene.
