What She Found

Chapter 11

SUNDAY, DECEMBER 16 - 6:30PM


Hayden was sitting in the waiting room when the door opened and Reese walked in; he looked tired, his hair messed up and the top button of his collared shirt undone.

"Sorry," he said, noticing her stare. He fixed his clothes and ran a hand through his hair. "What's going on? Is your boss okay?"

"He's at the hospital," Hayden said. "He's got a broken arm and a black eye, but I think he's going to be all right. I wanted you to come here to investigate."

"I need to see your boss. What's his name?"

"Hunter Copeland."

"You should stay with me, I have an extra guest room you can use."

"Excuse me?" Hayden said, her eyes narrowed. "Why exactly do you want me to do that? We barely know each other."

"I think you're in danger, even more than you realize."

Hayden was quiet for a moment, then: "I think we should head to the hospital, Detective Danvers."
