“He needs to know, Eve. It’s his daughter. And Savich and Ramsey are with him.”
“He gave you his email?”
“Oh no, I still have it from six years ago.”
“Wouldn’t he have changed it?”
Rule shook his head. “It wouldn’t occur to him, any more than he’d change to jockey shorts. I told him he could probably find Molly and Agent Sherlock at Williard House, outside of Camden in the middle of nowhere. They’ll find it. They might even get there first, unless they’re still in Las Vegas. I do wonder why Rich took off for there at the last minute. He couldn’t have known we were coming, and of course he’d want to keep his hands clean, keep his distance from Molly and Agent Sherlock. And that means something happened, something big enough for him to fly there now.”
Eve said, “Dorothea said he was upset, so you’re right. Something happened he wasn’t expecting. It wouldn’t surprise me if Agent Sherlock is giving the people he hired trouble.” She reached out, squeezed his hand, and her voice trembled. “Daddy, you’re the only man in the world I can trust now.”
He wanted to tell her she’d find someone, tell her all men weren’t like Doulos, but he didn’t say anything, her pain was too raw, her sense of guilt too deep. His poor girl. No one was immune from being sucked in, even Eve. He would put an end to Rich Doulos, he could do that much for her, and it was a start. He sat back, closed his eyes, and thought about how he could make that happen.
He never let go of Eve’s hand.
