Chapter 17

Angel and Sheriff Danzig approached the rock formation. She looked down at the GPS app on her phone and stopped in her tracks.

“We’re here, Sheriff.”

Danzig nodded. “Yep. This here spot seen a couple other disappearances too.”

Angel turned her head sharply. “Wait. You knew about this spot? Why didn’t you tell me?” Danzig touched the brim of his hat. “Miss Bonebrake, you’re a civilian.

There’s a lot of things I know about this case that I haven’t shared with you.”

Danzig ended discussion by scanning the forest floor between them and the rock. He pointed an index finger crooked enough that it must have been broken more than once in the past. “Looks to be a right struggle happened there.”

Angel nodded. “You’re right. I see signs of two people walking side by side right before there. One of them had huge feet, just like my brother.” Danzig regarded her with signs of interest. “That there is some fine tracking skills.”

Angel smiled. “From the time we could walk, our grandfather taught me and Bones about tracking and moving in the woods.

This is like a neon sign compared to tracking a deer over ten miles of rolling forest.” Danzig’s chuckle was a rasp. “I reckon it is. You being a civilian and all, I guess I should have asked if you was armed?”

“If I say yes, are you going to confiscate it?”

“No. Just wanting the lay of the land.”

“I’m not that big into guns, but I do have a knife. You need to see it?”

“Nah. How well can you use it?”

Angel grinned. “Better than I can track. Speaking of which, let’s see where they went after the struggle.”

When they arrived at the rock formation itself, Angel shook her head. “I’m thinking it was at least three and maybe four people. They came from at least two different directions. Two of them were carrying something really heavy the last thirty yards.”

Danzig chewed his bottom lip. “Where did they go from here?”

They circled the rock formation, finding no sign of tracks leading away.

Angel smashed the heel of her hand against the rock. “Damn it, I know they were here. And they didn’t just fly away.”

Danzig spoke almost under his breath. “They surely did not. I been to this spot ten times and ain’t found a damn thing. But we’ll look anyway. Search every inch of this here rock.”

Angel put her hands on her hips and her lips trembled. “And if we don’t find anything?” “Then we look again.”
