Chet Thompson sat in his truck in front of the hotel and drummed his fingers on the steering wheel. He’d had some bizarre cases, but this one topped them all. The only one he believed in all of this was Dillon Young.

He lifted his cell phone and placed a call to Marty, another ranger he trusted implicitly. It rang twice before the call connected. “You still up?”

“Kinda hard to sleep with everything going on,” Marty replied. “There’s been no movement around Ivy Ridge.”

Chet flattened his lips. “None that we can see, that is.”

“Yeah. I heard the chatter on the scanner about what happened at the Bar 4. Was the shooter found?”

“Not yet.”

“This is becoming a shit show. Should we call in more help?”

“No,” Chet said, harsher than intended. “I got the feeling Sheriff Felps and Hank Stephens go way back.”

Marty grunted. “Something the sheriff said?”

“Just a gut feeling.”

“We’ve been doing this long enough to trust those.”

It was Chet’s turn to grunt. “Don’t remind me about my age. This case isn’t going to be what I expected. We need to adjust for that.”

“What do you suggest?”

“I’m still working that out.”

Marty was silent for a moment. “Ms. Young has been shot at twice now. I doubt they’ll miss a third time.”

“My job is to find the stolen stallion, not prevent her death.”

“Yeah, but we both know what you’re going to do.”

Chet removed his hat and ran his hands through his thinning hair. “My old bones need some rest. I’ll check back in a few hours.”

“We’re getting too old for this shit, Chet.”
