It’s concerning the Flo Hanson murder." "Yes sir." In a moment a hard male voice says, "Staff Sgt. Lindross here. To whom am I speaking?" "Mike Claymore. I want you to remove the tail on me. Kapish?" "Well, you've decided to speak to us, have you? Getting hot, is it? What have you got? Bring it in and we'll talk. Until then everything stays status quo. Kapish?"

You have a good day, Staff Sgt. Lindross." As he hangs up he thinks that he now knows who's in charge of the case. Maybe they'll ease up on him, maybe not. Time will tell. He putters in the afternoon with the kids at a local mini golf course and makes sure he's home well before five. He has watched all afternoon and his shadow disappeared about three. He hopes that's permanent. He drops the kids off and heads out towards Mission. He parks along the Abby-Mission highway where he can see everyone and everything in all directions and waits to see Nina's car approach. As he spots her Pinto he flashes his lights and waves. She waves back and he sees brake lights as she passes. She stops and he runs across the highway. He gets into her car. "Take off!" he says and she floors it, blending back into traffic. "Turn left on Clayburn then left again at the next crossroad. Head for the river and take the last crossroad to the right. Let me know when we're behind Sumas Mountain." He lies by her foot on the floor. "What's going on?" She turns onto Clayburn Road. "RCMP have me under surveillance. I shook them this afternoon but I don't want to get you involved, ...
