The vibration was sharp and sudden, cutting through the quiet like a warning bell. Relief surged instinctively as I glanced down. Good, I thought. Information. Solutions. It evaporated instantly.

Paul started the minute that AJ sat down. “I know.” AJ was more than certain that they were not going to find shit.
