IT HAD BEEN a long time since Phillip Roach had sat fully on the wrong side of the law. Perhaps all he’d done to help Claire escape the clutches of Catherine London as well as stay off the FBI’s radar wasn’t legal, but it wasn’t this. This was the Phillip Roach of years ago: the one who knew his objective and accomplished it at any cost. This was the man he thought he’d always be but had somehow put to rest. The stark difference between years ago and today was with the issue of the order. In special ops and even in private hire, he received an order and he carried it out.

Today, there was no order.

If there had been, in Phil’s current state of employment, it would have come from Claire or Rawlings. Phil refused to allow either of them to be involved. They didn’t know his plans or what Taylor had learned from Ami Beech, and they never would.

Somehow, despite the elevated stress the packages and letters instilled, the Rawlingses had come to terms with them. Phil’s family had a sense of peace with their security. He had too, until there was too much—too much evidence that moved his calm, experienced mind into a cyclone of terrorizing thoughts. One seemingly innocuous clue was the color of Patricia’s hair. Red. People who wanted to stay hidden changed their hair to a neutral color, one that blended into the masses. Patricia’s color screamed for attention, or more accurately of arrogance.

Another finding that shouted for recognition was what he saw in her new home. When Phil entered her house to hide the tiny cameras and he walked into a small bedroom, the pink paint and white twin-sized bed made him nauseous. Learning of Patricia’s discussion with Ami of her daughter turned that feeling into a full-blown sickness. A bead of sweat materialized on Phil’s brow at the mere thought. The woman was either delusional or genius. Unfortunately, Phil feared the latter. Patricia was establishing herself in this small community and constructing a believable backstory. If her plans came to fruition, she would arrive back to her house and job with her daughter, the one she claimed was taken by her ex. The members of her inner circle would never question this child and Nichol’s life would be forever, irrevocably changed.

With each minute, Phil’s blood pressure rose. The thick fluid coursed through his veins, thundered in his ears, until his vision clouded with the red pooling behind his eyes. Patricia’s plans would not happen. Phil knew that with all of his heart and soul. He also knew that the Rawlingses would never, could never, know why the mailings stopped. If Phil could have done it without anyone’s knowledge, he would have. Unfortunately, he’d already let Eric and Taylor into too much of the operation.

As Phil waited for Patricia’s arrival in her living room, Eric waited nearby with the car. Over the years the two men had developed a trust that only comes with time and experience.
