He couldn't tell if that was really a question or if she was just repeating back the only word she'd managed to catch. Depending on how hard she'd hit her head, she might not even remember any of this. “How are you feeling? There's a hospital only a few blocks from here. That's where I'm taking you. If you've a phone handy, please call 9-1-1. We've got to let the police know what happened here.”

He couldn't begin to guess how much of the garage was actually covered by security cameras or how security would respond to whatever they saw. Sometimes surveillance only covered the stairwells and exits. For all he knew, they'd just seen smoke and were treating it like a car fire. Instead of...what exactly? A terrorist attack?
Some kind of organized crime hit on my former brother-in-law?

There was no answer from Olivia. Daniel risked a sideways glance. Her eyes had closed again. There was a cell phone in his jacket, but that was in the backseat and he wasn't in any position to reach it. Could he afford to stop, grab his phone and call the police before he reached the hospital? No. He had one task right now and one task only—saving the life of the person in his care.

“Thank You, God, that we're both still alive,” he prayed aloud. “Please have mercy on everyone else who might be in danger. Please prompt someone else to alert the authorities. Any help and guidance You want to give me right now would be awesome.”

An engine roared behind him. The sound echoed off the concrete walls. There was the crack of a gun being fired and the clang of a bullet hitting his tailgate.

He raced up the final ramp. Another shot was fired.

His truck's rear window exploded in a spray of glass.
