Chapter Twenty-Eight

Jill bolted up and started to pace in the tiny room. Her head was beginning to pound from the confusion. “Where is he?”

“He’s working on an ops. It’s called Operation Silhouette.”

Jill stopped and stared at Leila. Leila’s eyes continued to plead. “What the heck is going on, Leila?” Jill stood with her arms crossed and stared into Leila’s eyes. Blink, goddamn it, you bitch, blink.

Before Leila could answer, Johan held up his palm towards Leila. “Jill.” He paused for a split second then flipped another page.

Jill looked at Leila, then back at Johan. “What else does it say, Johan?” Jill demanded as if she was his commander.

“They think David is in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, funny thing … he left Hamburg a couple of days ago. They can’t be sure, as here it is written that he’s undercover. That’s the latest on him.” Jill and Leila both heaved a breath of relief.

“Do they know this for sure? Can they verify that it’s David who is in Dubai?” Johan shook his head.

“I, ah, I…” Jill stammered. “I need to get to Dubai, chief. Or at least I need to speak to David. I know you said he is still deep undercover. But did the brief state anything about David’s whereabouts or how I can contact him?”

More pages flipped before he confirmed no. “Also, Jill, during the time you were held by those bruisers, I received a call from Eric. FBI. We discussed searching for a man. His name is Zayed Saleem.” He flipped a page. “Zayed Saleem. Age thirty-seven. NOC. Undercover Middle East PRO for Time. Target: Jill Oliver.”

Jill’s jaw dropped and she looked squarely at Leila. “You know Zayed?”

“No,” she insisted. “David mentioned him, but I’ve never met him. What else does it say about Zayed?” Leila questioned Johan.

Johan looked down at the page again and read out loud. “He was extracted from Kushka by special ops for Russian Foreign Intelligence Agency. He was airlifted to Dubai. Neck wound. Prognosis positive.”

“I thought I heard two different Russian dialects in Kushka. Does it say why I was the target?” Jill questioned.

Johan looked back at Jill with an odd look on his face. “Seems like a no-brainer to me, Jill. Whoever is targeting you knew that David was on to them, then of course they'd have had you followed.”

“Then I was Zayed's target for what? To protect me? From the Chechen Mafia? Why?”

“Maybe that’s why David is in Dubai,” Leila interrupted. “To see Zayed.”

Johan shrugged and then continued. “Operation Silhouette,” he read, “suspected to be a front for Al Qaeda. Perps go into foreign countries where there is civil unrest, where a tyrant rules, and go all social network on the country. It’s a new form of terrorism,” Johan continued. “Syria, Yemen, Egypt, Bahrain.” He paused and took a breath. “Iran. We’ve been following this for some time now as have the US and UN. Practically all the original EU five have too. The GCC, Arab League, you name it.”

Jill looked at Leila and identified that this was the first time Leila had heard this based on her posture.
