Chapter 7

Shock and grief hit Haley as she sat there in the silent library, reading the article about her colleague’s death. According to the report, Alda had been missing since the mysterious death of Dr. Bob Herntz. Both deaths were being investigated because of their strange and curious nature. Hemtz had died in a car fire, but the autopsy had determined that a blow to the head had come first.

The facts sank in. Alda was well-known for her antidrug position, and yet she’d died of an overdose of a wild assortment of street drugs. The USGS had gone on record to say that although Bob and Alda hadn’t worked for them in years, they deeply regretted the loss of two of their most intelligent and well-liked geologists. The police were currently looking for a Dr. Haley Whitfield, the only known connection left to the bombings, the murders, and the missing uranium.

They meant suspect, of course. They thought she had murdered, for her own gain. It filled her with a sense of panic so great, she couldn’t breathe. If Alda had been involved, she had paid the ultimate price.

And so would Haley—if she left Colorado. So would Cam and his family, if she came out of hiding and revealed herself. She simply couldn’t breathe.

“Haley?”

She brought her hands up to her neck, as if that could make her lungs work. Nope, she thought vaguely, not working. She was going to suffocate and die. As her vision grayed, she pictured the headline.
