Chapter Eleven

Trey wondered if Joe Trainor and his men had used lights and sirens to get there. He remembered where the sheriff’s office was, and he knew how far out of the city they were, yet the men had gotten there in record time. With Joe were Detective Adam Gorsh and senior deputies Frank Novak and Ward Benton, men from the team they’d worked with on the bomb scare. They all shook hands with Trey and Slade.

Trey let Slade take the lead. He was, after all, the man in charge of their Delta Team and the one who had the relationship with the senior detective, just as Joe was in charge of the group from the sheriff’s office. Trey was more than glad to let him do it. His entire focus was on doing what had to be done as quickly as possible, then getting Kenzi and Dana out of here and away from danger.

“Thanks for getting here so fast.” Slade looked at Trainor and indicated the other men. “I see you brought the team with you.”

“You didn’t give me too many details to work with and I didn’t want to be unprepared.”

“Of course. Although maybe a little overkill, don’t you think?”

A tiny grin teased the corner of Joe’s mouth. “But you make things so interesting for us they didn’t want to miss the excitement. Oh, and the coroner’s on his way.”

“Good.”

“I need a doctor,” the man on the floor spat. “I am shot.”

“You’re fucking lucky to still be alive,” Slade pointed out, “so shut the fuck up. At least you’re better off than your friend.”

“You are all dead,” he growled. “El jefe will make sure it is a slow, painful death.”

“Only if he catches us first,” Trey growled. “And that ain’t happening.”

“Okay,” Trainor said. “So, what have we got going on here? You gave me the nickel version on the phone. How about filling in the details for me?”

While Ward Benton checked over the dead man, emptying his pockets, Frank Novak did the same with the fake Ashford, ignoring the man’s groan and curses. Then he snapped pictures of both men.

“I’ll send photos of these guys to the office,” Ward Benton called. “Maybe we’ll get lucky and they’ll be in the files. I bet they’ve had their picture taken before at some time or other.”

Joe nodded. “Let’s hope.”

“Want me to send it to the district DEA, too? Just in case, since there’s a cartel story at the heart of this?”

“Yes. I think we can all agree that’s what this is related to. Add a message to get it to Rod Bustamante. He’s the agent I work with the most.” Joe glanced at the women, then back at Slade. “I take it this was who you referred to in the phone call?”

Slade nodded and motioned the two women over to them. “Meet Kenzi and Dana Bryant. Dana’s the reporter we rescued from the cartel in Mexico. Kenzi’s her sister. We got involved today because she—”

“Was worried about her sister and wanted to meet the plane.
