Chapter 49

Donny chuckled into the phone as he explained his good fortune to Bart. “Sure as shit, Boss, I’m not kidding. The last thing I expected was to come across those two unknowns at the hospital in Livingston. Apparently, they’re agents, so I’m assuming that would mean FBI agents.”

“No shit? That is good news. FBI agents, huh? They must have been sent because the bodies were found in five different states. How they pinpointed Montana as the state to do their investigating in is disturbing, though. How did they connect the dots?”

“No idea, but according to the conversation I overheard them having with the doctor, they’re moving Tara Philips to Mountainview.”

Bart laughed into the phone. “They’re playing right into our hands.”

“It appears that way. I can see them from my location now, and they’re about to head out. The woman is in a transport van, and the agents look to be pulling out behind them. What do you want me to do?”

“Kill the agents. Watch your surroundings since it’s broad daylight and a pistol isn’t easy to hide while driving a motorcycle. Shoot into their car. If we’re lucky, they’ll swerve across the traffic lanes and have a head-on collision with oncoming traffic. Don’t forget, they’re likely armed too. After that, take out the transport van and get your ass back here. I’ll follow up with Carson at Mountainview. He’s got his eyes on Cassie’s room, and as soon as the deputy takes a piss break, he’ll make his move.”

“Got it, and I’ll see you soon.”

“Don’t forget that image of Clarence.”

“Understood, and I won’t let you down.”
