Оглавление“We can’t keep running forever, Paige. At some point, we’ll need to trust the authorities.”
“I think it’s best if we hold off calling your boss until we have a solid lead to act upon.”
“You may be right, although it could be that the information on this SIM card is enough to blow the case wide-open.”
“Please, not yet,” she begged. “Let’s make sure that we don’t tip anyone off as to where we are.”
Miles didn’t say anything for a long moment, but then he nodded. “All right, we’ll hold off. For now.”
Miles came up to stand beside her as she watched her daughter, and her heart betrayed her by skipping a beat. She didn’t want to respond to him, not when she was beyond annoyed with him.
“I’ll keep you safe,” he murmured softly.
“I know.”
He slid his arm around her waist and she leaned against him for a moment, drawing strength from his nearness.
Maybe he was right about calling the authorities. They couldn’t stay here indefinitely. Obviously the information on the SIM card was important.
Important enough to kill for.
