Andrei’s phone rang as he passed through Marathon Key.

“Yes,” he answered.

“Your plan didn’t work. Cam is still here in New York.”

“Oh well, I guess he needs to be eliminated then.”

“No. I told you he is not to be hurt.”

“Okay, it’s your call, but if it’s him or me–it’s him.”

“Be here tomorrow night.”

“I’m on my way,” Andrei said and turned off his cell phone.

Chapter 43

I was in my office when my phone rang at seven-thirty a.m. It was Jack.

“Hello, Jack. How are you feeling?”

“Not bad at all, considering.”

“Any luck at the airport, finding Bloodshot?” I asked, but I knew the answer.

“No nothing yet, but I have turned up some interesting info on Bill.”

“Really? What do you have?”

“Bill and Brady Osborn know each other. As a matter of fact, they were partners along with a man named Brian Wessel. Brian was found murdered in his home twenty years ago. Bill and Brady were questioned and released. The murderer was never found.”

“Where were they living at the time?” I asked.

“Right there in New York.”

“Is Wessel’s wife still here? I might want to talk to her.”

“No, she died a year before he did. It was just him and his ten-year-old daughter. She was sent to live with some relatives in Oklahoma.”

“Anything else?”

“Not yet, but I’ll keep looking,” Jack said.

“Thanks. How is Diane?”

“Busy being a good nurse. Being hurt does have its perks.”

“Keep your hands off her.”

“Don’t worry, I’ll behave.”

“That doesn’t sound like a promise to keep your hands to yourself.”

“Here she comes with my lunch, gotta go. I’ll call you if I get anything else. Bye.”

The phone went dead. I wasn’t really worried. I trust Diane, but Jack on the other hand...

Now, what do I do about Bill? He said he didn’t know Brady Osborn. Did he kill him? Maybe he had him killed. I could see him doing that. Is he behind Bloodshot? No, surely he wouldn’t have his own wife shot. Would he?

Next Robin called me. “Any news yet?” she asked.

I decided to keep Bill and Brady’s relationship to myself for right now.

“No. I talked to Jack, but no sign of Bloodshot.”

“Nothing at the airports or bus stations either, but I really didn’t expect to find him there anyway.”

“You never know. He thinks we believe he is still in Key West and that I’m on my way there.”

“Yeah, maybe. He’s pretty clever.”

“Keep me informed,” I said.

“Yeah, me too. I’ll talk to you later.”

I knew there was no way we would find Bloodshot, but on the other hand, Eric Meninx doesn’t know I know about him. If he’s following me, I might be able to find him. I would like to know what his role in this whole scheme is. If I can locate and follow him, he might lead me to Bloodshot. He has to be the reason that Eric is here. I decided to make myself visible.

I went to Chad's office and told him I wasn’t going to be able to make lunch with him and Alexis today.

“Sorry to hear that Cam.
