Smoke Rising: Book 1
Prologue
The man-like thing lurched up and smacked Smoke in the chin.
He staggered back.
It started walking down the hall, arms dangling at its sides and a hole clean through its back and chest.
Sidney took aim.
Blam! Blam! Blam!
It tumbled over with its kneecap blasted apart.
“Good shot.” Smoke wiped his brow and headed after their fallen attacker where it writhed on the floor. “I think it’s a zombie.” He pointed his weapon at its head.
Blam!
“Zombies aren’t real,” she said, catching her breath and holstering her gun.
CHAPTER 1
Huntsville Detention Facility, Alabama
“Are you nervous?” the warden asked.
“No,” Sidney said. “Why would I be?”
Warden Decker shrugged. Dabbing the sweat on his brow with his handkerchief and tucking it back in his pocket, he hustled forward and swiped his card. Nothing happened. He swiped it again and again. An unseen latch popped.
“Ah, there we go.” He opened one of two heavy metal doors and stepped aside. “It’s an old place. Not made for all this technology. I miss the sound of those keys jangling on my hip some days.”
“Thank you,” she said, crossing into the next room.
“You’re welcome, Agent Shaw.”
The pair entered a long hall made of cinderblock wall, lined with barred windows. Agent Shaw’s short heels echoed on the marble floor. The prison was old, but it had the smell of fresh paint that still lingered on the pale grey walls.
The thickset black man cleared his throat. “I’ve been the warden these ten years, and I have to admit, I’ve never had a situation like this.”
“Like what?” She adjusted the strap of her black leather satchel on her shoulder.
“We just don’t get a lot of visitors from the FBI, that’s all. And you have to admit, the situation is very unique.” He was smiling as he glanced over at her. “Isn’t it?”
“For you, I suppose, but I’ve been doing this for quite some time.”
“Visiting prisoners in sweat-rank prisons?” He huffed. “You didn’t sign up for that, did you?” He let out a little laugh. “Sounds more like something a foolish young man would do, like me.”
She showed the slightest smile on her face. Dark hair was pinned up behind her head. She wore a dark-blue pants suit with a white shirt. She reminded him of his daughter, in a white sort of way. Too confident for her own good.
“My job requires me to go to a lot of unique places, but I’ll admit, Warden Decker, I don’t think I’ve been to a place as humid as this.”
“They’ve been working
on the A/C for twenty years, and it still never works right. I’m from the South, and I still never get used to it.” He dashed the sweat from his eyes. “Sorry. But this hallway has no ventilation at all.”
“It’s all right. The academy’s prepared me for worse.”
He stopped at the next set of doors, readied his swipe key, and paused.
She dipped her chin and eyed him. “Something on your mind, Warden?”
He leaned on the door, took out his blue handkerchief, and wiped his neck. “I just got to know. Why do you need to see him?”
“That’s confidential.”
“I know that, but … it’s so strange. Listen, Agent Shaw. I’m the warden. Certainly you can give me some nugget of information. After all, he’s my prisoner. I’m pretty familiar with him. I’m pretty familiar with all of them. We have the worst of all sorts here: dangerous maniacal bloodthirsty killers. Of course, I’ve seen some of them cry like babies before.” He gave her a quick finger shake. “But we don’t have—and never have had—anyone like him.”
“Sorry,” she said, looking at the next set of doors.
They were painted white, with the word “LIBRARY” stenciled in black where the window glass had been replaced with steel.
“Is this really a library?”
“It is.” He tapped on the metal. “This is how we make do. I don’t think we get the same level of funding as the G-Men”—he looked her up and down—“or G-Women do. Are you sure I can’t stay inside with you?”
“I’ll be fine.” She shifted her satchel from one side to the other.
He took a breath and swiped his card. “All right then.”
CHAPTER 2
The latch popped, and the warden pushed the door open. It was a library as expected, with stacks and rows of books. The musty smell reminded Sidney of her days in high school. She’d done a lot of reading back then. Large wooden tables were lined up neatly, resting on old hardwood floors.
Two correction officers in grey shirts and black pants held synthetic stocked shotguns on either side of a table. A man in an orange jumper sat there between them. His head was down over a newspaper and his dark straight hair dangled over his face.
Her heart thumped behind her temples.
“I can stay inside, just out of earshot,” the warden said, patting the semiautomatic pistol on his hip.
She lifted a brow. “I don’t think he’ll try to escape, or even to hurt me, for that matter. It’s not in his profile.”
The warden blocked her view of the prisoner and whispered, “I’ve read his profile too. Several times. He has a dark side to him.”
“I know, but don’t all men?”
Warden Decker nodded and stepped aside. “Come on, men.” But at the last second, he turned to her and said, gradually getting loud enough for the prisoner to hear, “As long as you stay out of the stacks, I’ve got eyes on everything. Just signal when you’re finished.”
The guards came forward, eyeing her as they passed the threshold.
