“First, I’ll tell you about Mitskovski. It will help you with the container issue.”

“Go on.”

“Marko was nothing more than a distributor for the Bulgarianseksualni trafikanti. He wanted a bigger piece of the pie and decided to go after it himself. It’s hard to say which made the Bulgarians want to kill him more—the loss of half a million dollars’ worth of ‘product,’ or that he put them in the middle of a turf war.”

“The second container wasn’t the Todorovas’?”

O shook her head. “It was one of the reasons they got involved. Had the victims arrived in Purfleet alive, no doubt the Bulgarians would’ve offered a compensation to the Egyptians. As we both know, they did not.”

“The Egyptians?”

She nodded.

“Mithras?”

“Yes.”

“The other container belonged to him?”

“The other ‘product’ belonged to his associates.”

“But he didn’t kill Mitskovski.”

“Your Bulgarians took care of him.” She pulled out her mobile, tapped the screen, and mine vibrated. “That is Mitskovski’s killer. As you will see, in the act.”

“So what you’re saying is I don’t need to track the origin of the container prior to raiding the Bulgarians.”

“Mithras will celebrate your victory.”

“I’ve another question about him.”

This time, I sent photos to her. She glanced at them. “Where is this from?”

“Ten containers arrived at the Port of Felixstowe four days ago. They were liberated, and over two hundred victims rescued. No traffickers were arrested. The photos you see were taken inside one of the containers. None of those victims would own to doing it.”

“Do you have a list of those victims?”

“I can get it.”

“I want it.”

“O, do we have a conflict of interest?”

“Not at all. We’re on the same side, Nem.”

“Will you tell me more about Mithras?”

“Not yet.”

“When you do, will it help us find the traffickers of those containers?”

“Yes.”

“It’s going to be very difficult for me to go back to the coalition without those answers.”

O smiled. “Thecoalitionwill understand the delay.”

“Are you referring to someone specific within the organization?”
