CHAPTER THIRTY
Fox was watching traffic on Highway 50 when his phone rang. He answered with a curt, âYeah?â
âWe were finally able to trace down an address for Jo Gunning,â Dale said. âIt wasnât easy. There were layers, making it difficult to track. She has a cabin southeast of Salida, in the woods. Iâll send you the info.â
âSheâs trying to hide that she owns a place here,â Fox said dryly.
âYes. Not only that, but thereâs a tie to a private security organization in the DC area.â
âHow is she connected to that agency?â
âOn the surface, she isnât,â Dale said. âWeâre following up on this end, and Iâll let you know what we find.â
âIâll check the cabin.â Fox ran a hand through his hair. âBut I wonât make a move on her just yet, not until we know who sheâs working for.â
âYou might find more when you search the cabin, but donât tip your hand. I donât want her to know what we know.â
Fox watched cars drive by. âShe wonât know a thing.â
âWeâve checked mail services as well. Thereâs no evidence of anything being mailed by Hailey from Colorado.â
âGood.â
âWhat else?â
âThey found the body,â Fox said. âIâm monitoring the situation.â
âThere arenât any problems with the police investigation?â Dale asked.
âNot so far. Local law enforcement will do their usual routine, but the accident occurred on a rocky trail, and they wonât find anything out there.â
âGood. An autopsy?â
âI would imagine in the next couple of days. Again, they wonât find anything.â
âTheyâll be suspicious.â
Fox ran a hand over his face. âThatâs natural. If the deputy is good, heâll treat the death as a homicide until he can rule it an accident. Nothing unusual there. Weâll be in the clear, though.â He put emphasis in his tone on those final words, hoping to shut down any of Daleâs fears.
âAny other progress?â
Fox actually had made some headway. At least he could share that. âI tracked down an old high school friend of Joâs. She works at the lab.â
âWhatâs the connection between the two now?â
âI canât find one, so far. Iâm still looking. Iâll be talking to that woman soon.â
âBe carefulâwe donât want any more problems at the lab.â
âI know. Weâll get to the bottom of this.â
âIt had better be soon.â Dale sighed. âI think itâs time I come out there.â
Fox swore silently, then tried to keep his voice completely level. âI donât think thatâs necessary.â
âPerhaps.â Dale drew in another deep breath. âKeep me informed.â
âOf course.â
Fox ended the call and pulled onto the road.
