Chapter Twenty-Seven

 

Logan returned two hours later to Druid Hills Headquarters. He pulled the black, unmarked van around the building’s rear, cut the motor. He got out, headed toward the back of the van, opening the doubled doors. Its dark interior held a body bag. Ware and Morales rushed out with a stretcher. They slipped it down the ramp exiting the building, pushed it behind the van. Logan stepped aside as the men hauled the body bag onto the stretcher. He followed them wheeling the stretcher inside. Scarface specific orders were not to remove the body organs immediately. He brought them to the headquarters as soon as possible. Ware and Morales pushed the body toward the basement, then through the basement corridor. Into the room where Logan often met Leon, they gathered lifting the bag onto the table.

Scarface glanced around the circle, nodding toward Leon. “Unzip the bag.”

Jennifer Woods’s body lay inside the bag. She remained battered and conscience.
