CHAPTER TEN
Jeff drove toward the county hospital along the freeway. He tried to concentrate on Sammy and Paula and their plight.
Sammy had called an hour before. He had told Jeff that he had found Paula at her apartment the afternoon before. The hoods had gotten to her and used the dog. Jeff remembered that Sammy's voice had remained calm as he spoke. Paula would be alright, but she had suffered a terrible shock. The sedative had worn off and she was ready to talk, ready to tell Jeff everything she knew about Wade Jackson and his entire operation. With her testimony and Sammy's, Jeff would have Wade in jail in a matter of days.
But Jeff couldn't concentrate on the couple he was to meet at the hospital. He couldn't help thinking about his wife, or rather his new wife, he thought.
