Luton, Hertfordshire

Nothing. Roth holstered the Sig-Sauer, feeling the pistol ride awkwardly on his hip beneath the jacket—an unaccustomed feeling, despite the brief time he had worn one in Somalia with Six. Perhaps Afghanistan had been too long ago.

Nothing whatsoever. The black man took a final look around the empty flat before closing the door, the chill morning breeze washing over his bare scalp as he moved back to his car. Bringing with it the acrid smell of burning rubber from the piles of tires torched in the riots the night before.

It was the third safehouse he had visited since leaving Leeds in the wee hours of the morning. The third to come up dry.

Perhaps he had known better than to think that Mehreen would use a Five safehouse for. . .whatever she was doing. Perhaps he’d run out of other options.

It was only a matter of time before Thames House began to tie her to the disappearance of Ismail Besimi—only a short time longer before they put together who had given her the information.

Information that had led to two deaths, he realized, sliding into the driver’s seat of the BMW. He could still see the faces of the murdered constables if he closed his eyes.

The faces of their families. Dear God.

He sat there for a long moment, staring out at the street, the small English town just now beginning to awake.

It seemed impossible to fathom that Mehreen could have been involved in murder, but there seemed no other explanation for it.

You never truly knew anyone, such was the reality of their world. A wilderness of mirrors, a masquerade gone horribly wrong.

With death the only prize.
