The morning air in Tarr City was bone-chilling. Evelyn Ford put on a new pair of gloves and watched the road behind her through the rearview mirror.
At 8:15, a truck slowly approached the small grove of trees. Evelyn pulled out her binoculars to get a look. It was Kevin Holloway. Besides him, there were three other men in the truck, likely his bodyguards.
Evelyn's right hand rested on the car window, her fingers tapping lightly on the frame.
As soon as Kevin Holloway's truck entered the woods, he spotted a blue truck already parked there. After getting out, he led his three bodyguards toward it. Evelyn and Ronan Kendrick exchanged a look, then opened their doors and got out.
"I've prepared the gasoline. It's in the truck." There was still a hint of terror in Kevin Holloway's eyes.
