Jeremy Sykes. Questions missing drugs. Tells boss.
Gets fired. Gets run off the road by a dump truck.
Accused of carrying morphine in his car.
No personnel record of him at Sunnydale.
Izzie’s office is bugged and has CCTV. Charles and Fergus need to find a way to deactivate it without drawing attention so Izzie can dig deeper.
Edith Clayton. Possibly connected to owners or higherups. Fergus and Charles will check. Seems to be the boss.
Looking for possible investors. Need to keep following the money trail.
In Arizona:
Theresa’s bizarre story about her aunt. The woman.
The ring. The presumed body bag in the middle of the night.
Kathryn gets turned away on her first day.
Both Florida and Arizona police give Maggie a nothing sandwich regarding the accidents.
Maggie huffed. “Figures I’d get a nothing sandwich.”
“Annie and I have our appointments with the client relations managers at our respective future domiciles,” Myra said. “Maggie, visit Jeremy again. See if you can get him to tell you some names of people he’s dealt with.”
“Roger.”
“There are a lot of loose ends, but at least we have a few things we can pull on. Let’s recon again tomorrow evening. Same time?” Charles asked.
Everyone nodded. “Good. Izzie, keep your head down. We should have a hack for our best hacker by tomorrow evening,” Fergus said.
“I’ll do some checking on Edith Clayton and her relatives.”
“Alright, everyone. Stay safe. See you tomorrow.” Myra said.
“Mind as you go.” Fergus ended the video call.
Yoko went across the hall to Izzie’s studio. “Got a min ute?”
“Sure. What’s up?” Izzie opened the door wider.
“I know this might not sound like a good idea, but I think I might go over to Sunnydale later and check out the dump trucks.”
“You’re right. It does not sound like a good idea.” Izzie went over to the sideboard. “Can I get you anything?”
“Tea?”
“That I can do.” Izzie plugged in the instant water pot. “Chamomile? Peppermint? Ginger?”
“Peppermint. Thanks.” Yoko curled up on one of the love seats. “Hear me out.”
“Oh … kaay …” Izzie’s skepticism was loud and clear.
“The new section does not have electricity. I know the utilities are going underground, and I did not see any poles where they could mount CCTV. Right now, it’s piles of dirt with survey stakes. The trucks are parked along the back of a fenced-in yard. I could easily scale it. Check for dents, scratches.”
“It’s a dump truck, Yoko. It’s bound to have dents and scratches.”
