Оглавление“Someone’s either been in my house or is still there.”
Katie gestured to the open door. “Jordan, will you cover me?”
He didn’t waste time chastising her for not waiting on him. “What’s the layout?”
“Foyer leads straight into the great room. Two bedrooms and a bath to the right, kitchen and dining to the left. My bedroom is also to the left, behind the garage.”
“I’ll go right, you go left.”
Katie stepped into her house and caught her breath. Chaos greeted her. Cushions pulled off her couch and slashed. Bookcase overturned and coffee table shoved on its side. The Christmas tree lay on its side, ornaments crushed from one end of the room to the other.
A thud from the back of the house caused her to stiffen and shoot a glance at Jordan. “You hear that?” she whispered.
Suddenly a crash. Running footsteps.
The French doors swung open, and the intruder halted when he realized Katie had him cut off. She pointed her weapon. “Freeze! Police!”
