“Several about the missing Irish Crown Jewels.”
“Several?”
“Ten.”
I had to admit that was odd. “I thought it was well known that the two pieces were taken apart and sold as individual gems.”
“It’s one theory.”
“All right, you’ve got me interested. What do you make of it?”
“If I had to guess, she’s discovered something that led her to believe she can find them.”
I was at a loss as to what to say. Sure, I wanted to know everything about Siren’s life, but I wanted to know it firsthand, not from Decker. I wanted her in my arms, in my bed, and in my life—permanently, but that wasn’t possible. Even before her memory came back, it hadn’t been.
“There’s something else you need to know.”
“Get on with it, Decker.”
“I’m not the only one tracking her.”
“Fuck,” I muttered. “Who else?”
“Someone at Interpol headquarters. I haven’t been able to determine exactly who yet.”
I knew from my meeting with Cope that the Interpol Executive Committee was convening this week; it was the primary reason why he was so anxious for me to get started. It would be the only time his three primary suspects would be in the same place at the same time this quarter. My next opportunity to surveil the three men together wouldn’t be until October.
“Do you have any idea why someone from Interpol would have their eyes on Siren?”
“Negative, b
ut I sure as hell intend to find out.”
“Thanks, Decker.”
“I have a couple more updates for you.”
“About?”
“Siren’s nurse turned up in London. Seems she’s taken on another private nursing gig.”
I’d wired the remaining funds I owed her before I left the States and headed for France. “Good to know,” I said, not really caring other than to know the woman was accounted for. “What was the other update?”
“Your security system at the Blazing T is fully operational. For the time being, I’m receiving the same alerts Zeke gets, and I have mirror monitoring set up. I’ll keep an eye on things while you’re off playin’.”
“You meant while I’m off saving the world. Seriously, thanks, Decker.”
“You’re welcome. Maybe after this, you’ll agree to step away from the dark side.”
“Ah, that’s gonna hurt ol’ Burns’ feelings when I tell him what you said about his number one son.”
I could hear Decker’s laughter as he ended the call.
I didn’t like the connection between my mission and Siren one bit. Why would anyone from Interpol be keeping an eye on her? I thought about calling Decker back, but if someone had been watching her while she was at my ranch, he sure as hell would’ve said so.

The operative Cope had undercover at Interpol was someone who’d worked the same op Siren and I had for Rile. Calla “Casper” Rey had been one hell of an agent, and thankfully, after she walked out of the CIA, the Invincibles team had managed to keep her busy.
