“Yes. His brother's a year older than Silas and, according to him, he’s egotistical, domineering, and sort of… well, as he put it, he can be a ‘whack job’ at times.”
“I take it he lives here in the city,” Darin said. “What’s his name?”
“Travis Harford, and, yeah, he lives here.”
Scott rapped his knuckles together. “Now the question is, where did he see you, Corey, and why has he fixated on you?”
“You’re asking me?”
“No, the wall,” Scott replied with a bit of a grin.
“Corey, guys, come look at this,” Jenn said, breaking into their conversation.
They all went over. Corey nodded. “Definitely could be Silas, except for the nose, but,” he told her, “we found out he’s been at work all day. He has a brother, though. No clue about his hair. It wasn’t something I could logically fit into the conversation.”
Darin told Jenn, “I need a couple of copies of this, please. Then I’ll do a search for information on Travis Harford and run wants and warrants on him. Hopefully something will show up. You”—he looked at Corey—“are to go nowhere without Scott around.”
Scott grinned and Corey cocked an eyebrow, replying, “Nowhere?”
“Okay.” Darin chuckled. “Nowhere outside of your apartment, and he’s to check it thoroughly when he drops you off. I want Travis Harford so angry that you and Scott seem to be inseparable now that he makes a mistake. One that allows us to catch him.”
“I think he’d go after Scott before me,” Corey pointed out.
“And that will be his biggest mistake,” Scott said adamantly.
Very exciting and scary
