There were a series of beeps and a clank, and the doors opened. Greta stepped in between two guys I recognized from the train station. Mr. Two and Mr. Five, I guessed. They walked her over to the other wooden table. One took her arm and clasped something I hadn’t noticed before over her wrist: a black metal shackle. There were four of those things, I could see now—one at each corner of the table.

Greta hunched over the shackle and tugged at it. “What are they doing?” she asked me.

Mr. Four began rooting around in one of those giant rolling red metal toolboxes. Every now and then he’d raise up a tool—a hammer, a pair of huge clippers—and then put it back.

Mr. Two and Mr. Five went to the doors, punched in a code, and left the room.

Greta rattled the cuff. “What’s going on, Ronan?” she cried.

“How are you going to contact your mother once you reach Washington, DC, Evelyn?” Ms. Hand asked.

“Until you told me, I didn’t even know she was there,” I said. “I was just supposed to go with Dawkins. And now he’s dead. That’s all I know.” I couldn’t allow Greta to be hurt. “Just let her go, and I’ll tell you where those weapons are, the ones we took from the SUV.”

“That will be a nice start, but just to show you how very serious I am, Evelyn, and to stop you from making your little jokes, we are going to have a little demonstration. Mr. Four?”

Her partner came plodding back to her side. In one hand he held a silver hatchet, the kind you might use to chop up firewood while camping out. In the other hand he held what looked like a small black brick.

“Mr. Four,” she explained, “will now take your friend’s hand off at the wrist.”
