Chapter 123: Vaughn

It wasn't Vaughn's job to figure that out. He had to help get Jared Moss back to the states. That was it.

"This is us." Nolan found a spot and parked along a side street.

"Don't die." Brenden opened the back door and was gone. For such a big guy, he moved like a ghost. One moment he was there, then he wasn't.

"Should be a fun afternoon," Nolan muttered.

"Yeah, well, I question your use of the word fun. Check you later." Vaughn opened his door and stepped out onto the street.

The salty tang on the air was soured by a rotting aroma he could almost taste.

Trash.
