Milton Residence St. Paul, Maryland
Milton couldnât take it any longer, his back aching, his fingers fidgeting, his mind so preoccupied with thoughts of his friends, he hadnât accomplished a lick of work all day.
He grabbed his phone and called Tommy Granger.
âAnything?â
âNo, not yet.â
Milton cursed, then decided a line needed to be crossed now that there was a criminal element involved with the break-in. âDo you still have his call history?â
âYup.â
âThere was a call to Italy. Give me the number.â
There was a pause as keys were tapped. âWell, look at that. How did you know?â
âI saw it on your screen.â
âGood eye, Deano. Well, umm, are you sure you want to do this? I thought you didnât want to violate their privacy.â
âJust give it to me!â
âUmm, yes, sir.â Tommyâs reply was meek, and Milton immediately regretted snapping at the kid.
âListen, Tommy, Iâm sorry. Iâm just scared for my friends. This is getting more serious than we first thought.â
âWhy? Whatâs happened?â
âI canât say. In fact, I think itâs best if you back off. Weâll let the pros handle this one.â
There was another pause. âPros, huh? As in, umm, pros?â
âExactly.â
Tommy whistled. âSo, this is serious.â
âIt could be.â
âThen do you really want me to stop digging? I mean, Iâve helped these pros out before.â
Milton shook his head. âYouâre going to no matter what I say, arenât you?â
âSo, you do know me!â
Milton groaned. âFine. Just keep a low profile.â
âI always do.â
âGood. Now give me that number.â
Milton jotted it down then ended the call, immediately dialing Italy, his breath held.
âGiasson.â
Milton sighed in relief, his suspicions confirmed. âHi, M. Giasson. This is Gregory Milton, Jim Actonâs friend.â
âYes, of course, Dean Milton of St. Paulâs University. What can I do for you?â
âWell, Iâm not sure how to say this, but, well, Iâm concerned Jim and Laura may have stepped into it again, so I had someone pull their phone records, and noticed Jim called you.â
âYes.â
Milton sensed some hesitation. âI was wondering if you know what theyâre doing in Ethiopia.â
There was a long pause, and Milton wondered if the line was still connected. âI got the sense Jim didnât want anyone to know we spoke, but if heâs in troubleââ
âI think he is. Two people broke into their house soon after they left, and took nothing. It was as if they were searching for something.â
âThatâs disconcerting.â Giasson sighed. âI canât tell you much, Greg, but I can tell you what I suspect.â
Milton tensed. âAnd that is?â
âI think they may have found the Ark of the Covenant.â
