NewGen Office

Austin, Texas

“You think she’s tellin’ the truth about her boss?” Harlan asked. He patted the top of Loren Gaffney’s head.

The NewGen receptionist didn’t look up.

“Sure.” Skeeter made the word sound more like “shore.” “Anything’s possible. Hell of a coincidence, the guy runnin’ off right when the money hits town.”

“No duh. You think this gal knew about the money?”

Picking at a pair of gardening shears, Skeeter shook his head. He dug at something stuck on the blade then flicked away a bit of Loren’s flesh. “Nah. She woulda told by now.”

“Along about the third toe.”

“Prolly right.”

“So our Stevie Buchanan is in the wind?” Harlan asked. “Either spooked and ran, or he’s making a play on his own.”

“Scared of the bad-ass John Stone. The Rock of Texas.”

“Hah. Scared of Stone? Only if he caused a car wreck. Let’s bust.”

Skeeter jerked his head at Loren. “What about her?”

“What about you, tiger?” Harlan asked Loren. “You want to live?”

She nodded.

“Well, you have to promise me something.”

“Anything.” Her voice came out dry and raspy. “Anything,” she repeated a little louder.

“You have to be a good girl and promise to eat your peas and drink your milk.” He held his serious expression for a beat, then he cracked a smile. “Sorry, darlin’, I was fuckin’ with ya.”

Harlan pulled a gun from his waistband and shot Loren between the eyes.
