Chapter 5

Jack closed the bathroom door of the cheap room he, Marin and Sylvia had just checked into. He’d gone with something outside of town in the hopes of escaping the Boston hotbed of witches. He flipped the cover of the toilet down and planted himself on the seat. Before he could talk himself out of it, he dialed Harrington.

Harrington picked up on the second ring. “How can I help you, Jack?”

Jack cringed. He already owed the guy one favor. “I might be able to help you out. I’ve got access to some recently developing intel that might interest you.”

“In exchange for…?”

And here was the tricky part. Trying for a casual tone, Jack said, “Information for information. I could use a little background on magically tracking a person.”

Harrington’s response was immediate and sharp. “I’m not putting you in touch with Cliff.”

Jack shifted, trying to find a more comfortable position on the hard seat. “I get it. I’m not asking for your precious geo-tracker. Just some information from you.”

“Done. What have you got?”

“A Coven witch on the run, headed your way. Well, headed IPPC’s way, to London. Not sure where she’ll end up, but she’ll be passing through London.”

“Jack,” Harrington chided. “You know we can’t help. We have a strict non-interference agreement.”

“Right. I’m not asking you to interfere. I’m letting you know she’ll be in the area and, more than likely, open to answering some questions. If you have any.” Jack shifted the phone to his other ear. “Or not. If you don’t think she’d be useful.”

“When?”

Just as Jack expected, Harrington couldn’t pass up commitment-free intel on a rival organization, regardless of whatever non-interference agreements the two groups had in place.

“Not sure yet when she’s landing, but I can update you.”

There was silence on the other end of the line for several seconds. Finally, Harrington said, “Agreed. What do you want to know about tracking?”

“What methods are there? And is there a way to block them? Hypothetically, I’d like to make someone untrackable.”

“You know about geo-locaters. As you’re already aware, there’s a way to tag a person or object so that a geo-locater can still actively track them from a distance. Then there’s scent tracking.”

“There’s been no evidence of Lycan,” Jack said.

“Lycan aren’t the only magic-users capable of scent-tracking. But they do all utilize basically the same principles. Could you have been tracked by scent?” The tapping of keys in the background punctuated Harrington’s response.

“Doubtful. Maybe in conjunction with some detective work and some other magical means—but not alone. Any hints for finding a geo-locater’s tag? There are no electronics: no phone, no computer.” Jack couldn’t help but hope they’d destroyed whatever tag might have existed when they destroyed Sylvia’s gear.

“Well, tracking through technology requires a gifted geo-tracker. You know they’re rare. Fire is good if the tracking device is an object. But if the subject has ingested the marker and it’s been absorbed into the subject’s system, then only time will dissipate the signal.”

Jack closed his eyes and let his head fall forward.
