It didn't take long to get to the station. It didn't take long to get anywhere in Picketville. When we arrived, there were more vehicles in the parking lot than there had been earlier in the day. Most of them were trucks, some of them even more battered than Red's. One of them had more Bondo on it than metal, and a couple of the others were covered with camouflage paint.

"Ralph's army," Anne said. "Or his camp followers. I'm not sure what to call them."

"How about his butt-boys?"

She laughed. I liked to see her laugh. "I think I'll stick to letting Red call them that."

I looked around the parking lot and counted the cars and trucks. There were seven. And there was no way of knowing how many men might have arrived in each one.

"Are you sure you want to go in there?"

Anne got out of her car and leaned her head back inside. "I've seen them before. Come on."

I got out. I wondered if Ralph Evans would talk to me or just have his followers throw me out of the building.

Well, there was one way to find out.

"Can I count on you to protect me?" I asked.

Anne laughed, and we went inside.
