EXCERPT
John couldn’t believe his luck as he tracked Dan and Penny.
Things were turning out far better than he’d ever hoped. First, he’d turn their
horses loose and then he’d get the money from them and take off. His plan was
perfect. This blue norther would take care of everything else for him.
Dan and Penny were so far away from the line shack they
wouldn’t last in the freezing cold, and even if they did survive, he’d be long
gone by the time anyone rescued them.
Feeling more confident than ever, John moved down to where
they’d left their horses. He checked the saddlebags and found the metal box
filled with money that they’d found on their first dig. After running the horses off, he went to find
them.
John reached the drop-off on the side of the road and was
surprised to see Dan and Penny on their way up carrying another box of money.
He stepped back to stay out of sight until Dan reached the trail.
Dan got to the top and helped Penny up to find John waiting
there for them. He immediately feared the worst – that he’d come after them
because Jack had died.
“John, what happened?”
“Nothing’s happened … yet,” John said, his tone serious.
“Then why are you here?” Dan demanded.
John’s expression turned deadly. “I want the money.” He drew
his gun and aimed it at them. “Just toss the box over here, real easy.”
“Don’t do this. You’ll never get away with it.”
“Thieves only get in trouble if they get caught,” John
sneered, “I’ll be so far gone before anyone finds out what I did, they won’t
have a chance. Now, throw that box over here or I’ll shoot the girl.”
