“Dutch and Onyx. There are a couple of volunteers from the company too.”
“Who?”
“Messick and Jacks. Ever heard of them?”
“Ranger Messick started out in counterterrorism. Graduated from Syracuse’s INSCT program. Diesel Jacks is a language savant. Speaks twelve at last count. Went to Cornell; almost immediate post-grad recruitment. Both were on Striker’s core team.”
“You’re like a damn computer.”
“Want height and weight too?”
“No, thanks.”
“You sure about sending Dutch in?”
“He came to me.”
“Roger that. What else do you need from me?”
“I need you to look after Alegria. I know you have a lot going on right now, but she won’t come here.”
“You’ve asked?”
“No, but my gut tells me she won’t.”
“Where is she now?”
“She and Dutch are traveling. My understanding is they’ll arrive sometime tonight.”
“Does she know he’s deploying?”
“Negative.”
“Shit.”
“Sorry, Raze.”
“Don’t be. I got this.”
Instead of getting the SUV, Razor called his wife. “We have a situation.”

“What’s going on?”
“Can you go somewhere that Aine can’t hear you?”
“Sure. Give me a sec.” Ava went into the en-suite bathroom in their room and closed the door. “Okay. I can talk.”
“K19 is sending in a team…shit, Ava, you can’t say any of this to Aine. Do you promise me you won’t?”
She took a deep breath. “I won’t, Tabon, I promise.”
“Striker and Mantis are MIA.”
“Okay.”
“Dutch and Onyx are leading a team in, and that means Alegria is going to need our help.”
