Bones’s expression was coldly contemplative. “Perhaps he wasn’t sure those guns would be enough, but more telling was how he tried to compel you to work for him. He wants you for something, Kitten, which means he needs you alive. The new security measures were only if he had no other choice.”
I was silent as I digested this. Since we first met several months ago, Madigan had exhibited an unusual interest in me, and it wasn’t the flattering kind. Whatever he wanted, it would end in my death, of that I had no doubt. The only thing I wasn’t sure of was what he hoped to accomplish before that.
He wouldn’t get a chance to find out. Once I discovered what had happened to my friends, I’d kill Madigan.
“Now what?” I asked, mentally gearing up for the road ahead.
Bones gave me a measured look. “Now we track down your uncle and force him to tell us the secret he’s tried so hard to keep.”
