She was suffering from it too.

So, as the family gathered, they took a quick coffee break, seeing if they could maybe get a lead.

When Jinx handed the Major caffeine, she took it gratefully.

“Was it bad?” Tommy asked, being brave enough to ask the question. They weren’t talking about it, and he suspected it was a bust. “Did you guys lose him?”

Every Marine stared over at him.

Gene protected him.

Just.

In.

Case.

Marines got cranky when they couldn’t complete a mission, and these Marines were no different.

“We didn’t lose him. He was set up. Apparently, Chevy is covering his tracks.”

She told them all about the man’s murder and ambush by the rocket that blew up the vehicle.

“Well, at least the Addiction is gone,” Stella said.

“Yeah, along with our chances of finding Chevy that way,” she added.

Eve sat on the couch, tucked under Dakota’s arm. He’d run back to the house for her to get her some street clothes for the doctor's appointment, and now, he was hovering.

She’d be lying if she said she didn’t like the gorgeous ring on her finger.

She really did.

“We’ll get him. I’ll be back from my doctor’s appointment. In fact, if you need me now, I can cancel.”

Dakota agreed.

“We can do that.”

Maura reassured them. She knew they were both looking forward to the appointment. Sometimes, you had to put the family first, and that was exactly what she was doing.

“No, go. We’ve got this. We’re going to the airport where the one guy said the women flew out.”

She glanced over at Merry, who knew what was coming. She’d been to this rodeo with Elizabeth many times.

“I know you want to know who owns the jet.”

Well, yeah.

“Who?”

Merry warned them.

“You’re not going to like it.”

She closed her eyes.

Honestly, Maura didn’t like anything about this case. If she didn’t get a nap, or Chevy soon, she was going to get downright punchy.
