Of course, all good things come to an end, and Emmy was waiting for me when I plugged myself back in. Vanessa was nowhere to be seen, and I made sure to close the bedroom door before I started talking.

“Don’t bullshit me,” Emmy said. “You knew that earpiece wasn’t waterproof when you picked swimming.”

“If you’d spent the entire day with Sofia explaining a thousand ways to kill people, you’d have done the same.”

“She’s dedicated.”

“She’s insane. And she wouldn’t shut up.”

“There’s a possibility she might have forgotten to take her meds this morning,” Emmy conceded.

“Next time, give me Ryder if I can’t have Rune. At least he’s quiet.”

“I’ll see what I can do. But first, an update. We’ve hit a slight snag with the backup plan.”

My stomach dropped.

“What snag?”

“Marshall got a letter from the Master. Seems he doesn’t believe we managed to steal Spirit, so we won’t be able to catch one of his people in the act at a handover. Xav’s copy was too damn good.”

“So what happens next?”

“If Spirit was our only connection to the School of Shadows, perhaps we’d alert the authorities to the theft. But thanks to you, we don’t need to do that.”

“Which means…?”

“Which means all the eggs are in your basket at the moment.”

Great. No pressure. Just me, a four-hundred-acre campus, and a stolen painting to find.

“Sky?”

“I’m here.”

“You’re doing fine. We don’t need to solve this tomorrow. Slow and steady wins the game, so keep mapping out the campus, carry on listening, and we’ll narrow down the areas where a painting could be hidden. We put a tracker on Ezra’s car while he was in town this afternoon.”

“What about Saul’s?”

“We’re working on it. He doesn’t seem to go out much.”

I lay on the bed and closed my eyes. “A den of thieves, and I’m stuck right in the middle of it.”

“Look on the bright side—Shadow Falls is meant to be pretty in the autumn.”
