chapter 28

Dr. Campbell said everything relative to my condition was progressing normally. The truth was I felt pretty good these days, just a bit more tired than normal.

After my doctor’s appointment, I drove back to Cherry Hill to my condo. I decided I’d wait until this evening to go back to West End. I wanted to make sure I had the place to myself so I could check things out without other eyes watching me.

I had a message from Dominic on my answering machine when I got home. He apparently had called me at the office earlier and was told that I’d left for the day, so he called me at home. I could tell by his curt tone that he was agitated I wasn’t accessible to him at the moment.

Friggin’ great.

Anyway, he said he’d be tied up with ‘associates’ the rest of the day, and he’d try and touch bases with me the following day.

Click.

Oh hell, I guess he was the least of my worries for the moment. I needed to make sure that the Corallo shipment got dispatched per the terms of the contract since it was going early by nearly a week.

I grabbed a sandwich and ended up taking a nap on the couch for the rest of the afternoon, waking up just as the six o’clock news was coming on.

I figured now would be as good of time as any to run by the shop and check into some things without being watched. By the time I arrived at West End, it was after six-thirty.

Damn.

Sherry’s car was still in the lot, along with Vinnie’s and another car that looked vaguely familiar. And then I remembered from several months back—it was Marco Trevani’s dark blue Lincoln. What the hell? I drove past the lot, and made a turn onto the first street to the left, circling around the block opposite West End, parking a little ways down a side street so that I could still observe the comings and goings at my little business without being seen.

It must’ve been close to a half an hour later, when a dark van pulled into the parking lot at West End, pulling up to the exterior door of DBK.

Ah hah!

I watched as two females got out of the van and knocked on the door. They were allowed entrance immediately.

Who the hell are they?

I stayed parked across the way for another hour watching, but no one else came in or went out. It was starting to get dark, so I started my car up and headed out towards home, too busy contemplating what possible reason any of those people had for being at DBK after hours to notice as I pulled into my garage from the street in front of my condo that a dark colored Volvo was parked at the curb.

I was still distracted as I walked up the concrete sidewalk to my back door, fumbling inside my handbag for my keys. I hadn’t noticed that someone had circled around to the back of the condo, and was a mere six feet away before addressing me.
