31.

Sally could recognize the looming confrontation on Jerry’s face. This time, his tight lips and slanted eyebrows foretold a real fight. “Aaron spoke to me,” he said even before putting down his briefcase and removing his jacket. “He promised you not to tell me, but he’s worried, and as a good friend he had to tell me. I justify his decision—”

“All right, someone’s following me. So what?”

Jerry sat down on one of the living room couches and leaned forward, distraught and angry. “Three followers—two by car and one by motorcycle. That, in addition to all the threatening telephone calls against our children and us, and maybe other things you never told me. What happened to your car, for example?”

“It has nothing to do with it. A truck collided with me.”

“Do you have its details?”

“It drove off.”

“You’ve never had an accident, and suddenly a truck rams into you and flees? And you think I haven’t noticed the new tires and the scratches to the paint underneath the polish? Sally, this is getting serious. I demand that you stop. Let Marin know you’re quitting this whole thing.” He slid his phone to her. “Now!”

“You know I won’t do it. I’ve never run away from something because of threats.”

“These aren’t threats, don’t you get it? They may have already switched to actions without you knowing. Following my conversation with Aaron I checked up on Ben David in the police database and other sources I have access to. He’s linked to a criminal organization based in the south, and I’m sure they’re using him to get to Marin’s money.”

“In that case, I’m even more essential. I’m saving Marin from a criminal organization. Give me the details and I’ll send them to Jacob.”

“I’ll give you no details. Stop this at once! I know these types of people. They’ll give you no notice before they start hitting. One day you’ll come home and find everything destroyed, or worse, someone will harm Michael on his way to school. What will you say then? That you did the right thing for Marin?”

“I won’t say anything because nothing will happen. I will take Michael to school every day and bring him back, and—”

“I’ll take him. You, with your reckless behavior, have become a target. You’re endangering everyone around you.”

“The target is Marin, not me. And that’s also the reason that even if I stop all my activity today, they won’t believe I retired and will continue to threaten me. After all, they won’t give up Marin’s money. So there’s no choice. I have to go all the way.”

“What is this ‘way’ exactly? How will you persuade Ben David and the criminal organization behind him to let go of Marin? You don’t realize the kind of swamp you’ve entered.” Jerry pointed at the phone again. “Call him,” he ordered.

“I will not call him, and I won’t stop this work. I’ve never told you to stop your work.”

“I’ve never endangered my family.”

“Really? Weren’t we all at risk when we went to Pakistan?”

“That was unnecessary.
