Eva leaped through the door planting her feet wide apart, bent at the knees and braced, she was in position to fire. She pulled the trigger as quickly as possible. Three silenced thuds into the wrapped up figure on the bed. Pillow dust! Something was wrong. It was like a blur, so fast she couldn’t react in time. The cord was around her neck. Just as quickly, it tightened. Eva attempted to shoot her pistol back over her shoulder. One thud and a bullet went into the wall by the bathroom. A strong hand knocked the gun from her hand. The garrote was knotted against her throat and she felt the powerful force of a knee in her back. All of her martial arts training was useless at this point. Eva thought, ‘Why now, why – ?’ ****************** Mason felt Eva’s body go limp. He carried her naked body over to the bed and lay her on it. Her lifeless eyes stared unmoving at the ceiling.

I guess it’s the only thing I love.” “No problem,” the man said, “no one will touch it until you pick it up.” Mason jumped out of the back of the van, pushed the ramp inside and closed the two back doors. He then walked down the street, turned the corner and was at the river front. There he saw a flat bottomed boat. Two large men seemed to be busy arranging some barrels on the boat. “The river is quiet tonight,“ Mason said. “It isn’t so quiet upstream,” the older man replied. Knowing that was the password, Mason hopped aboard the boat and the engine roared to life. They started down stream toward the ocean. Mason stood at the edge of the boat watching as the city lights disappeared behind them. No one said a word. ...
