Today’s
excerpt is from Billy’s Rescue, Book #7 of the nine-book Asps Series. While the Asps, in Pakistan, try to figure
out where Billy might head after his assumed escape from the terrorists, Glenn
Burgess asks Jim for help. Enjoy and
have a great day.

As he gathered
himself mentally, Glenn left CIA Headquarters.
He drove a short distance away in his car. He had to make sure the call he was about to
make could not be traced in any way. He
used one of Jim Scott’s special cell phones to call Jim.
Jim saw who was
calling, and answered, “Hi, Glenn.
What’s up?”
“Got a big mess
on my hands. Need help.”
“Sure. Shoot.”
Glenn explained
about the seemingly bogus information gathered by Badda Younis, with the result
in Pakistan . Jim instantly bristled when told Billy Garcia
had been captured and was missing in action as the two men spoke. When Glenn finished, Jim asked, “Where is
this Younis jerk now?”
“Islamabad —where he’s
gonna stay until you can round him up to ask him a few pointed questions. Your methods, et cetera, are up to you. What happens to him if his answers are what I
fear they may be is also totally up to you.
Just don’t let it come back in our laps…please.”
“You know better
than that. I assume—since you’re using
the phone I gave you—this call is totally safe.”
“Oh, yes. I’m in my car…which I scanned with a black
box before I left Headquarters. Anything
you need from this end?”
“Yeah, pictures
of the guy plus his dossier, if you can get them to me safely.”
“Can do. I have a laptop with a disposable hard
drive. I’ll use it, then dispose of it.”
“I’ll take care
of it. So long.”
“Thanks…see ya.”
After he ended
the call, a chill went down Glenn’s spin, as he thought of what Badda Younis
was in for—even if the man deserved it.
