They’re en route to the safe house right now. Ali said Irina was okay to travel.”
“Talia Ballenger?” Sloan asked.
“Status unknown.” Rebecca shrugged. “The concierge at her building says she’s out of the country. Maybe he’s right. Apparently she has residences on several continents.”
“What about the other Russian prisoners?” Dell asked, settling back into her seat.
“We’ve doubled the guards on them. They probably don’t know enough to be a threat to anyone important.” Rebecca pulled out a chair and sat down.
“Kratos Zamora’s doing?” Sloan asked.
“That would be my guess, yes,” Rebecca said.
“His own brother,” Jason murmured.
“What do we do?” Dell asked.
“Nothing,” Rebecca said. “The crimes will be investigated.
Someone may even be found accountable. But as to who really gave the order? We’ll never be able to prove it.”

Justice for All
That’s what counts. Irina and her sister have new identities, a chance for a new life. The other girls aren’t being abused anymore. We put a big hole in the Russian operation.”
Dell stared at the table. “We’re always one step behind because we have to play by the rules and they don’t.”
“You’re absolutely right. We play by the rules, at least all the ones that matter, because if we don’t, we’re no different than them.” Rebecca looked around the table. “Anybody want out? Because this is just the lull between innings.”
Sloan looked at Jason, who nodded sharply.
“We’re in,” Sloan said.
“Fucking A,” Watts said.
“Yes ma’am,” Dell declared.
“Good. We got close to Zamora once, and we can do it again.”
Rebecca’s eyes gleamed fiercely. “And I promise you this. When this game is over, we will be the winners.”
