Russell finally accepted the arrangement. The next morning, he arrived with a rented trailer. Slate and I helped him empty locker 214.

Diesel called timeout. “Marcus.” The boy looked up. “Yeah?” “You’re going in.” Caleb immediately objected. “Not now.” Diesel turned toward him. “Excuse me?” “Put him in after we get the lead.” “And if we never get it?” “Then we lose.” “Exactly.” Caleb stared at his uncle as if he couldn’t believe they were having this…
