Chapter 7

Zane

“What’s the big fucking emergency, Lincoln?” I ask, sitting behind my desk and pouring another glass of bourbon. I glance at him over the top of my glass and notice he’s totally stressed out. Twitchy. “What?” I prod, setting down the glass.

“It’s Sokolov. He’s…” Lincoln stops and wipes a hand across his face. I’ve never seen him act like this.

I clasp my hands together. “Is the meeting still on?” I ask, keeping my voice composed.

“No, sir. Sokolov has been arrested.” Lincoln closes his eyes and then quickly opens them. They’re clear, unflinching.

The news is not what I expected. Not even close. News like: Sokolov is dead. Sokolov put a hit out on you. Sokolov has left the country.

Any of those scenarios would make more sense.

“Please tell me that for the first time in your life you’re kidding.” I lean forward and clasp my hands together more tightly. I need to reign in my emotions.

“No, sir. I’m not joking. Our informant on the police force just called not ten minutes ago. It’s true. And the informant says Sokolov is going to talk in exchange for immunity and a promise that they won’t extradite him back to his country.”

I stand. I can’t help it. “This changes everything.” My throat is in my stomach because I know what has to be done and I don’t want to do it. “Did you draw up the paperwork I asked you to?”

Lincoln nods. “Yes sir. It’s in that folder there.” He points at the manila envelope next to the keyboard.

I pick it up and flip it open. Everything looks in order. “Good. You know what needs to be done?”

“Yes sir. I was just waiting for the go ahead from you.”

“The sooner it’s done, the better. We leave at four.”

Lincoln stands. “All will be in order by then.”
