Chapter Seventy nine — Halvern
Two and a half hours.
Davan drove.

Every turn.
Every shortcut.
The specific knowledge of a man who had moved between locations for ten years and had memorized the land the way you memorize something you are not sure you will ever be free of.
Mara sat in the front beside him.
Caius and Zane in the back.
Edmund and Petra in the second vehicle behind them.

Evidence to document.
Things that needed doing by someone who knew exactly where everything was.
