CHAPTER SIXTEEN

Damascus

Joe Mitchell’s time was running out. He had no place to go and no way in hell to escape. He didn’t even know what country he was in. If they turned him loose right this minute, he had nothing on him that would save his ass.

The door opened and Hana walked in with his meal. The man now stood in the doorway with a gun. Joe didn’t dare speak for fear of getting her in trouble. He wouldn’t do that to her, but he did smile weakly to let her know he understood her situation.

When Hana left, Joe ate in silence. In the solitude his thoughts ran rampant and his fears grew. Soon el Jibar would come for him, torture him then kill him. So many people would be slaughtered because of him. Innocent lives would be sacrificed.

Joe stopped and dropped his spoon. He gathered the chain up in his hands. He looked up at the massive hook that secured his shackles. Anita came to his mind. Her beautiful face appeared before him. The family portrait above their mantel in Georgetown flashed in front of him. His two handsome sons.

He could think of only one way to contain the threat. He alone held the information el Jibar wanted, so he could use it to destroy his country. As tears coursed down his face, Joe turned over his bucket and stood on it.

“God forgive me.” He took a long breath. “Anita, my love.”

Closing his eyes, he twisted the chain tightly around his neck. Using his spoon as a makeshift clasp so the cable couldn’t unravel, he then stepped off into a deep void.
