Chapter 26

Don’t read too much into it.

Breaking news about the terror attack was about to hit the airwaves, and Laz told me not to worry? Not to read too much into it? What happened? Why would he tell me that? Didn’t he realize that worrying would be all I’d be able to do until I found out what he knew? What his source from Homeland Security knew?

I left the restaurant right after he did, shutting off my phone because I needed a clear mind to handle whatever else was coming down the pipes. The evening—no, the day, the entire week—had proven to be too much.

Tired, weary, and now worried, I felt fragile, like one little tap from the wrong hand would send me to pieces.

Enough!

I wanted to believe that I could just tell myself to get it together, but being this close to the edge, I knew a self-pep talk wouldn’t cut it. It was after ten-thirty when I reached Baltimore’s outer loop that took me to my home, but without even forming the thought, I knew I was making a stop in Towson first.
