THIRTY

Her afternoon and evening had been spent researching the sedevacantists and reading more of the articles written by Pierce and Taylor, waiting to leave until she was sure everyone had gone to bed. She timed her departure to be long after Grand Silence had begun and long before anyone would be up preparing for the Office of the Vigils at six thirty in the morning. Even though she didn’t really have very far to drive to find the hometown of John Barr, she wanted to time her departure so no one would see her leave.

Eve gave her cat a bowl of milk and a little extra food, unsure of when she might return. She knew the Captain would check on Daisy even if he pretended he didn’t care about his daughter’s pet. She tidied up her room, packed the food she had taken from the kitchen, and tucked the folder of letters she had taken from the front desk at the monastery under her arm. She stood at the door and looked around the room, making sure she wasn’t leaving any clues about where she might be going, and then remembered the small patch of blue cloth she had stuck in the desk drawer. She walked back to the desk, retrieved the swatch of material, stuck it in her pocket, and headed out the door.

The backpack was heavy, and she wasn’t sure there would be room for the folder in her saddlebags on the Harley. She wasn’t even really sure of why she had taken the stack of letters; all she needed was one with the return address, but since she had removed them from the front desk and didn’t want to put them back, she also didn’t want to leave them in her room, giving a certain clue to Daniel or the other detectives of where she had gone. She didn’t know for certain if one of the police officers would really try to find her. She hoped that she would be back before anyone actually realized she was gone, but she wasn’t certain about that and she wanted to make sure she had time to find Anthony and talk to him before the police or the archbishop’s people found him.

She quietly opened the back door to the monastery, walked out, and then closed it behind her and headed to the rear of the chapel where she had last parked her bike. When she got to the place where she had left her Harley, she knew immediately that the Captain had gotten there first. Her bike was gone, and there in its place was her father’s truck. She couldn’t believe what he had done. Sometime after their last conversation, he had driven from Madrid to Pecos, left his vehicle, and returned home on the motorcycle. She was making a mental list of all the things she would yell at him about.

You stole my bike! You drove a motorcycle in the dark with one leg!
