Percy wanted to be shocked, but he had a hunch that there weren't any coincidences. Maybe it was some kind of divine net he was caught in, but he doubted the gods cared that much.
At least he hoped so. The Basker family and Makari Dyrakis being involved in this only made things more complicated.
"Basker?" George frowned. "Those are the people from the house in Carmen. The murderers."
Hugo nodded, dark eyes flashing with danger.
"They haven't changed their ways, in fact they are a lot more dangerous now than before." He saw the confused look on Percy's face. "Barty told me about what happened in that house, and I met one of them in Limia when I was following House Eurides."
"How did you get from Limia to Dema and back here in five days?" Percy asked carefully.
"Trade secret."
He rolled his eyes at Hugo, but it was to be expected. The new info was good though.
"How are they more dangerous?"
