CHAPTER THIRTEEN

Gary Quimby was not a nervous man by nature.

He had no sons, much to his displeasure. He’d looked forward to the time when he could pass that tradition on in the club, but Sandy had never been able to conceive and a few years ago he’d had to bury his sweet wife.

Gary Quimby was a private man. His visits to the club were discreet. He preferred to watch, and when he did participate he tended to be a shadow initiator, wearing a hood and mask, teaching the boys to submit to authority and letting them know how it would be when it was their turn to be in charge.

Gary Quimby was a cautious man. He understood that many would twist the beauty of the club, find something wrong with it, and he wanted to protect his … interests.

His need for privacy and caution had served to protect him, and many of the newer members hadn’t even known he was involved. It had been nearly ten years since he’d attended one of the meetings, and he didn’t even miss them. It had been going downhill ever since Pete’s death, but when Abel Blue had that heart attack and died so suddenly, that was when the situation had really began to deteriorate fast.

Jeb and Glenn had tried to do too many different things, change too many things. The videos, the webcams, all the photos. None of that was needed and all of it was risky.

No, Gary wasn’t a nervous man.

Not many people would know that he was a member of Cronus, save for his brothers, the older members of the club.

Most of them knew better than to talk.

It just wasn’t done.

Now, though … well, it was only a matter of time before the men started to talk. He doubted it would be Glenn. His father had trained him too well. But the others … Discipline had been slipping over the years.

It was only a matter of time before the cops found somebody who would rather break than honor his word to his brothers.

It would probably be Sam, because that son of a bitch was a weak one and always had been.

Jeb Sims was dead.

Harlan Troyer had been murdered.

Yeah, there were looking dismal as far as Gary was concerned. He needed to figure out just how to proceed from here, because although he’d been cautious, there were still those who knew his name.

Lately he’d been thinking it might be the ideal time to retire … out of the country. It was something he’d researched before, but more and more it was looking like just the thing to do.

The door to his small accounting firm opened and he managed to paste a smile on his face.

When he saw who it was, he relaxed.

Every time it wasn’t a cop, he relaxed.

“Well, hello there.” He managed, barely, not to sneer. He never had liked the son of a bitch who’d just come to a stop in front of him, but he was very good at hiding that sort of thing.
