They came to a traffic light, and Chris could see a large Baptist Church on the corner.


“The guy who told me about the baths said that the Baptists could climb up to their bell tower with binoculars and see the rooftop deck on the baths,” Chris said.


Quentin turned left when the light changed, drove past a building, then turned right into a long parking area.


“The entrance is there on the side of the building,” he said, “and this parking area ends at the next street. It’s a fairly safe neighborhood, so I don’t think anybody will bother Mabel.”
