Chapter Twelve

Bruder keyed his radio and told Kershaw, “We’re coming to you.”

Rison led the way with the truck, Connelly in the passenger seat. The truck bed was packed and had the surveying gear closest to the tailgate, good enough for any cursory examination, but they all knew if it came to that, the guns were probably coming out.

Bruder followed in Claud’s car with the windows down, choosing the cold air over the stale smoke and fast food smells. He had the AR barrel-down in the passenger footwell, ready to lift up and point through the passenger window or windshield if need be.

The vehicles stopped before the last curve and Bruder used the radio to ask Kershaw, “Clear?”

“Clear.”

The truck rolled around the curve and Bruder followed.

He saw Kershaw standing by the post with the chain in his hand, watching the road.

The vehicles turned right on the road and braked, exhaust coughing and drifting into the cold ditch.

Kershaw reconnected the chain and swept the tire tracks with another branch, then walked backwards to the road while erasing his own tracks and tossed the branch into the woods.

He stopped at Bruder’s window and peeled off the camouflage parka, eyeballing the Honda.

“What are we doing with this thing?”

“Looking for a lake to drop it in.”

“Not around here, pal.”

“Then we’ll find something else,” Bruder said. “If we see any Romanians, let me pull around front.”

Kershaw was skeptical, but said, “Okay.”

He got in the back seat of the truck and they moved out.
