Оглавление“Let’s go, but stay to my left, okay?”
They left the motel, keeping close to the building as they rounded the corner to the back.
Kari didn’t say much once she was safe inside his car, and he drove away from the motel, although he could tell she was watching the road behind them for any sign of the SUV that had shot at them. He hated knowing she was so afraid.
He headed for the interstate, but they were on the freeway for barely ten minutes when bright headlights gained on them from behind. Marc tensed when he realized the vehicle was an SUV.
The same one as before? How was that possible?
He hit the gas, determined to put distance between them.
“Gun!” Kari shouted. Sure enough, he could see the narrow barrel of a gun poking through the passenger-side window just like it had earlier.
“Hang on,” he said, pushing the speed limit as much as he dared.
“Not again! Please, not again!”
Kari’s desperate cry stabbed like a hot poker in his gut. He’d promised to keep her safe.
He couldn’t bear the thought of failure. Of losing another witness.
A pregnant witness.
