Chapter 14

“How can this be?” I yelled at the top of my lungs into the interior of the car. “How can he be you, Win? How has he managed to prove he’s you? Luis literally watched them take blood samples and swab his mouth! What is going on?”

“Dove, watch where you’re going, please!” Win shouted tersely.

I righted the steering wheel and tried to focus on the road to the diner, where Eleanor’s aunt would be this early in the day, but my nose had begun to throb and the AC in my rental was out. “Got any answers, International Man of Mystery?”

“I have nothing. I have nothing other than my word this man is a rat. He’s lying,” Win spat, the harsh tone to his voice a very unusual occurrence.

“Well, the DNA says otherwise. So what do we do now, Win? Will he have your fingerprints, too? Where’s the proof your fingerprints exist and why hasn’t MI6 sent them to Davis Monroe? If he can prove he’s you, and I can’t prove I came by that will of yours honestly, what then? I think going with the ‘I hit the afterlife lottery’ explanation just won’t cut it.”

Gosh, I was in a mess of knots over this. This was no longer just a subtle threat. This was very real. Our home and our lives were officially in jeopardy.

“We must make sure Luis connects with Davis Monroe. I didn’t take this seriously enough, I suppose, and for that, I’m quite remorseful. Davis has my contacts at MI6, and they can confirm not only my position with them, my DNA and my fingerprints, but my death.”

“Will that matter? He has DNA to prove he’s you! I bet he somehow got fingerprints, too!”

“I’m going to be quite honest and tell you that isn’t impossible on the black market if you know the right people, Stevie.”

“Perrrfect,” I drawled with sarcasm. “So how are we going to prove he’s not really you? Is MI6 going to give him the spy test to prove it? Are they going to make him jump from tall building to tall building in hot pursuit of some arms dealer? Ask him to show them how tight his water torture skills are?”

Win’s sigh rasped in my ear. “Stevie, I don’t have the answers. I only know Davis will know how to handle it. He’ll contact MI6, and they’ll straighten this out.”

With a roll of my eyes, I pulled into the diner’s parking lot. “Right. I passed that on to Luis, that it’s imperative we get Davis to talk to his contact at MI6, but I don’t know what good it’s going to do us at this point. We have a walking, talking guy wandering around pretending to be you, and then we have you. A ghost.” Leaning forward on the steering wheel, I tried to catch my breath and get my head together enough to talk to Eleanor’s aunt Tippy.

Dana’s bail hearing was set for tomorrow afternoon. I wanted to prevent him being in the pokey for any longer than the evening.
