I will also need something he used every day.” “This is our investigation.” Erik hissed at me once more. “Yes and look at how much you accomplished.” I rolled my eyes. “You idiots don’t even know who took him. Let alone have a plan.” “It was the Fellowship of the Sun.” the cowboy said. “We have no proof, Stan!” Isobel yelled…
