The kidnapped boys would be terrified. Senior Constable Nhiari Roe’s
body ached with tension and she tugged on her braid. Beside her, Sam
drove with confidence, pushing the four-wheel-drive hard as they raced
towards the ranges. In the back seat Nhiari’s brother, Matt, Arthur
‘Sherlock’ Hammond, and Gretchen sat just as tense. They were racing to
rescue Gretchen’s son, Jordan, and his best friend.
The ten-year-olds had been snatched from school by Jordan’s father, and
the man holding them was someone she’d been hunting for months.
Lee Slater.
Her gut clenched.
He had lied and seduced her with his words. She’d thought he could be
the one until his lies came to light.
Now she had to stop him.
Lee was a loose-cannon. No one really knew what he was capable of,
though he’d already killed at least one man.
She had to protect the people with her; Sam and Sherlock were exmilitary, but Matt and Gretchen were civilians. They were all likely to go
off half-cocked and get themselves injured or killed.
“Can’t you drive any faster?” Gretchen called, the worry in her voice
clear.
Sam’s chuckle was strained. “Not with a police officer in the car.”
Nhiari grunted. Like that mattered. He was pushing the car as fast as it
would go. “When we get there, I go in first. You wait until I give the allclear.”
She felt the resistance to her statement as Arthur shifted in the back seat.
He was as concerned as Gretchen, after protecting both her and her son,
Jordan for a few days now. But it was Matt who piped up.
“Not going to happen, gunyjan. None of us are letting you in there
without backup.”
She flinched. Her knowledge of her native language wasn’t as good as her
brother’s, but he always used the endearment when he wanted something.
“I’m in charge. You’ll do as I say.”
Sam took his eyes off the track to glance at her. “With all due respect,
that’s not in our nature. We’re a team and we protect and support the team.”
Nhiari ground her teeth together. They weren’t in a team any longer. They
were civilians, but she knew from experience nothing she said would
change their minds. And they were right. There wasn’t another cop who
could back her up fast enough. Though it didn’t mean she had to like it.
“I’m going to throw the lot of you in gaol when we get back.”
“You do what you need to do,” Sherlock said. “Just like we will.”
Matt directed Sam onto a dirt road. Nhiari gripped the handle above the
door as the car bounced over bumps, and she focused on the ranges in front
of her. They ran the entire length of the peninsula, and the boys could be
anywhere. Matt’s fiancée, Georgie, thought she knew where they’d be.
Apparently she’d met Lee there occasionally, despite him being a wanted
felon. Nhiari would have words to her about that later.
As they got to the base of the ranges, they pulled up behind an abandoned
Parks and Wildlife four-wheel-drive.
