Chapter 11: Nick Bracco by Gary Ponzo
Nick pushed the contact button and put the phone to his ear. He knew Emily Stone was in pursuit of a couple of missing teenage girls and his assassin suggested he knew where they were.

“Then what about th...

Chapter 10 – Emily Stone
Emily followed Rick as they hiked west to intersect the trail leading to their SUV.
She hurried in silence climbing steep areas. The exercise felt good and relieved some of her sore muscles. The more distance between her and the compound the better. She flashed back on the crates of weapons and boxes of computer parts.
Rick had anonymously sent texts and alerts to the local law enforcement as well as the local branch of the FBI to retrieve the two...

“Do you know who he’s talking about?” Matt asked.
Nick nodded. “Emily Stone is searching for a couple of California girls. I think she’s out in the Midwest somewhere.”
“So how does he know where they are?”
“The better question is—What does he want for the information?”

Chapter 8 – Emily Stone
Emily and Rick secured the two men inside the storage building. Their wrists and ankles were fastened with zip ties and then affixed through metal rings on the wall. The men weren’t going anywhere before cops arrived. They remained quiet and rarely looked at the couple.

“Yeah.”
“I’m going to search the h...
