The man slumped to the ground, clutching at his throat, gasping and choking, his face reddening.
The driver’s side door slammed shut. Aaron spun and addressed the driver, who now stood beside the van’s grill.
The driver had a cocked pistol in his hand.
“Step away, or I will shoot you in the iris of your left eye. You have one second.”
The man’s voice gave nothing away. He sounded colder than the air conditioning in the terminal. Like shooting someone in the face was as routine as eating ice cream on a hot day.
That voice persuaded Aaron to ease back, his hands raised chest high.
The driver helped his friend up into the passenger seat, the whole time keeping the gun trained on Aaron.
What the fuck is happening here? Aaron thought. Who are these people?
“Turn around and start walking,” the driver ordered. “Do it now.”
Aaron did, but not before scanning the terminal windows. At least a dozen people watched from the relative safety of the building. No way would the guy shoot an unarmed man in the back when his hands were raised. Not with that many witnesses.
The van door shut and the wheels bit the grass as the vehicle raced away, headed for the ferry.
As they left, Aaron memorized every feature of the two suited men and the little he saw of Gary Weeks.
“Shit, now what?”
