Jeremiah Gantry stepped onto the sidewalk in front of the FBI's Los Angeles headquarters on Wilshire Boulevard. Barry Muller emerged from the building right behind him. They walked to the curb and stood under a streetlight. Barry reached into his jacket pocket and pulled out a rectangular envelope, which he handed to Jeremiah.

"What is it?"

"A ticket to Flores via Guatemala City. The flight leaves from LAX first thing tomorrow."

"I can't leave right away. I have to see to Gilles and Julie."

"Suit yourself, but Senator Guerra wants you on that flight. Ask yourself this. Who does Gilles care about more? You or the girl."

"Gilles would never betray me."

"He'll make a deal. The only question is who gets shafted," Barry said, flagging down a cab. He jerked open the rear door and jumped in. Leaning through the open window, he said, "Go home, pack a bag, and grab the flight. The senator has everything arranged."

"I can't abandon them. They need me."

"If Gilles is a standup guy, you're simply going on a vacation. If he rolls, at least out of the country you'll have options. I'll handle the extradition hearings to the state of Washington for them here in Los Angeles, and arrange for legal council once they're transferred to Seattle."

“What about bail?”

“Not going to happen.”

"Spare no expense for their Seattle legal council. I want the best."

"Absolutely," Barry replied, closing the window.

The cab edged into traffic, leaving Jeremiah standing alone at the curb in the glow of the streetlight.
