This the last part of a four part series. It can also be read as a standalone.
Part 3: Soothing Ocean, Restless Heart
Neal selected an unused burner phone from his Venice collection and dialed a number.
“Burke,” sounded the voice, sleep-clogged and bleary.
“Hey, Peter!” he said, in a voice that was far too excited for 3:52 a.m.
It took barely ten seconds to trace a call. The Feds would be here in ten minutes, which gave him eight to enjoy the rather annoyed voice of a rather annoyed Burke and two to get the hell out.
Neal smiled. This was going to be fun.
The truth, the wretched fear, was carefully hidden behind a mirage like an oasis in a desert.
The end.
