As they kept watching, Jeff took the woman into the back area of the department and made their way to a storage room. They were in the storage room for about fifteen minutes. In that length of time, the phone rang twice and went unanswered. When they came out, Jeff handed the woman something, and she left. This only made things look worse for him.“Do you guys need to see any more of this?” Lindsay asked them.“No,” Max said. “But if I go find him and beat him, will I also be fired?”“Yes, you will. But if you two want, you can open a case on Jeff for his actions, including interfering with an investigation and possibly a solicitation of prostitution charge if you can find that woman and get a statement out of her,” Lindsay told them.“Oh, I think we can do that, don’t you, Max?” Big Bob said with a smile.“Piece of cake,” Max answered, also smiling.Both Max and Big Bob stood up and moved their chairs back to where they had been in front of Lindsay’s desk.“Before you guys leave, tel

Lindsay and Wren had followed Nim’s directions and had found the service road where Nim was supposed to be. Lindsay pulled down the service road as far as possible. The last thing they wanted to do was get stuck. They were still in the patrol car, and both were armed. Wren had gone a step further; he had removed the shotgun from the bracket between the front seats and was checking to make sure it was loaded to capacity.Lindsay picked up her phone and tried to call Nim. He did not answer. If he were still where he had been, he should be able to see her car lights. She started scanning the area using her spotlight, but saw nothing but trees. She decided to try calling him again before getting out of the car and looking for him.“Sheriff, is that you on the service road?” Nim asked when he answered his phone.“Who else would it be, Nim? Do you have a flashlight or something to shine so we can see where you are?” Lindsay asked him.“Yeah, I’ve got a flashlight on my phone. I’ll turn it o

Lindsay was feeling everything that had happened the night before. She had bruises that she had no idea where they came from, and had found many more splinters than they had first thought. Thankfully, Wren had helped her take them out.She had not gotten the three hours of sleep that Max had calculated. She had only gotten about an hour. Since Lindsay had not slept before Nim Jones called her, she had been awake for about thirty hours with just an hour of sleep. Max had stayed at the office until she arrived and had made a pot of his special night shift coffee for her. Cat had been coming into Lindsay’s office about every fifteen minutes to top off her coffee cup. Lindsay leaned back in her chair and closed her eyes. She felt a sense of comfort knowing that the people she was in charge of were doing their best to take care of her.Wren had called her about an hour earlier to let her know he would have to go out of town to handle an emergency elsewhere. She always hated it when that ha

Lindsay continued to sit on the bed for a few minutes. She needed to try to explain to Dillon why she was not telling him things. She wanted to tell him everything, but that was not an option. This was one of the times she wished Wren were not away on assignment, but that was part of his job. She heard her cell phone beep and picked it up from the nightstand. She had just received a message from Wren.“Have you said anything about last night to anyone outside the department?” it read.“No. Why?” Lindsay wrote back.Her phone rang, and she could see it was Wren.“Hey,” she answered.“Hey, babe. Have you told anyone anything about last night?” he asked.“I have only repeated the story about Nim being left by his friends, and we went and picked him up, to everyone except Little Bob,” she said. “Little Bob asked if I had been attacked again, and I told him not directly. A rock was thrown at a pine tree, which shattered.”“OK, that’s fine, but did you say anything to anyone else?”“Of cour

It had been a few days since Lindsay and Wren had rescued Nim Jones, and things were finally starting to die down. Honestly, even if people were told the truth, they most likely would never believe it. Lindsay was sitting at her desk, doing the department’s monthly reports. She was working her way through them much more quickly than she thought she would. She hoped it was because she remembered how to do them after having to redo reports from months past when she had taken over.She opened her desk and pulled out a bottle of aspirin. Since the night in the forest, she had found several deep bruises. With everything that had happened, she had not even realized anything had hit her that could have caused them. When she watched the game camera video, she saw that several substantial pieces of the tree had hit her. She took a couple of aspirin with her bottle of water and leaned back in her chair.As she sat in her office, she saw a man enter the department whom she did not recognize, but
