Imogen hung up, but she couldn’t relax. Shirley didn’t tell her what the kidnappers said to her. She had to find out the answer before she could truly be at ease. After the call ended, Shirley’s eyes twinkled with doubt. Then, she called Roy.

Zacharias’ eyes went wide, delight filling his gaze. “What’d you say?”
