ELSA’S STOMACH WAS tied in knots. She feared for Joseph, and for Birgitta, and all those girls. Her arm hurt. She really was out of practice with the whip. Her leg hurt because the painkillers from earlier were wearing off. She felt physically and mentally exhausted, and her emotions were running high. Officer Imler backed her wheelchair out of Koslov’s room. He was still cursing her, but the heat had gone out of his words.

“I hope you rot in hell, you evil devil woman!”

“You, first.” Elsa flipped him the bird as she exited.

“Oh, he will. No worries. Gregor is going to love prison. And by the looks of him,” Faust made a wry face, “prison is going to love him.” Koslov lay in his bed, penis still out for all the world to see. Faust sighed. “Well, I can’t leave even you like that.” He walked over and threw the blanket up, tucking it around Gregor’s shoulders. He leaned down, smiling. “The LKA thanks you for your cooperation. I’ll be sure to let the jail guards know just how much you’ve helped us. I’m sure they’ll want to tell all your cellmates, hold you up as a good example, a model prisoner.”

Koslov’s eyes grew wide. He’d never been in prison, but heard the men on the Vledelets tell tales, and the one thing prisoners do not tolerate is a man perceived to be in the pocket of law enforcement. He was as good as dead. The idea terrified him.

Faust whistled a happy tune as he walked out. But the tune didn’t quite hide the fierce worry running around his head. He knew that the odds of Heinz and the SEK coming out on top in this operation were lower than fifty percent. He didn’t like those odds at all. Before he’d turned Elsa loose on the rapist, they all thought they would be dealing with run of the mill criminals. After she extracted the information, he knew they were the worst kind. The Bratva weren’t just brutal, they were a network with paid informants in places one would never expect. Sometimes, those informants were inside police organizations. He didn’t want to put Joseph and Elsa in danger, but it seemed this whole case file of three missing girls was far more than any of them could imagine. It was only the tip of the iceberg.

He caught up with them at the elevator. “Hell of a job you did, Kreiss. I won’t forget it.”

“Thank you, sir.” Her energy level plummeted further, and she could barely hold her eyes open, yet her mind wouldn’t shut down. “You’ll keep me posted, won’t you?”

The ride down two floors was short. “Will do. I understand how much it means to you.” He gave her a pat on the shoulder. They were no more than three steps out of the lift and down the hall when Nurse Eichmann came up on them.

“It’s about time!” She looked at her patient. “What have you done to her? She looks like she’s going to pass out!” Her eyes narrowed on Faust and her thin lips pursed.
