an eerie silence while the muted flashes of red and blue continued to flicker like strobe lights across the dozen or so vehicles strewn across the road they were parked pal mel in the brush and a group of search and rescue workers moved solemnly around the scene under a canopy of dark billowing clouds arnold baker dug the toe of his work boot into the damp soil and shoved his hands into the pockets of his battered sheep skin coat he glanced up at the sky as a low rumble of thunder started far off in the distance and then turned his attention to the suv that was just pulling on to the scene he raised his arm and signaled to the tall slightly bowed figure that crawled from behind the wheel and then watched and waited patiently while he picked his way over the uneven ground arnie the coroner bobbed his head by way of greeting and the two fell in step as they walked together to the mutilated body it looks like maybe we found that missin hiker we been lookin for baker speculated any clue what happened to him looks like he probably fell from the ridge up here the short barrel chested sheriff dipped his balding head toward the edge of the overhang that ended a few feet away baker peered up at the coroner from under his bushy gray brows s r had a time pullin him up from the bottom of the ravine he was wedged in pretty tight down there and the critters ve had a go at him so you just might have a rough time figurin out the exact cause of death if i didn t know you better sheriff i d say that sounded like a challenge sam kaufman said light heartedly as he slapped the sheriff on the back sam was tall and gaunt and slightly stooped from a life of bending over to avoid knocking his head on every other door frame the contrast in their appearance and difference in education made the two men an unlikely pair but early on they had discovered a mutual love for books and the pleasures of fishing that led to a solid friendship they knelt down over the body and studied the decomposing form most of the skin and muscle of the extremities had been torn away leaving the bones jutting and exposed ragged pieces of what appeared to be a faded flannel work shirt were stuck here and there to denim jeans and a tough leather hiking boot was still clinging to one foot like the rest of the body it was almost completely covered with dirt and twigs well it looks like the wildlife sure has had a hay day i suppose this poor guy could be your hiker but i d say from the looks of it that he s been dead for more than a few days of course i can t really say anything for sure until after the autopsy sheriff baker shrugged and nodded in a maybe maybe not sort of agreement while he chewed down the end of the toothpick he d been swilling around between his teeth and waited for his old friend to take in the details of the gruesome cadaver it wasn t long before his patience was rewarded with kaufman s shocked exclamation jesus h christ arnie what in blue blazes happened to his head well now that s a good question sam but i only know one kind a animal that skins the hair off its supper fore he sits down to eat as was typical glen ended up being the last one out of the office at the end of a really long day more and more they were all becoming long days he could hear lily s voice in his head reminding him that if he didn t slow down one of these first times he was going to crash and then he wouldn t be any good to her or his patients he smiled and told himself he would make it up to her this weekend with a tour of the valleys vineyards and a whole day of wine tasting he checked to make sure that everything was turned off and the alarm was set before he twisted the key and gave one last tug on the door he made his way down the stairs off the back porch of the old victorian where he had set up his practice almost two years ago and started toward the black jaguar his pride and joy parked just a few feet away a slight movement caught his attention and just as he looked up joseph came lumbering around the corner of the house what the hell is he doing here glen spoke under his breath talking to no one in particular he had an instinctive dislike for the big ogre and he was always on edge whenever he was forced to meet the man s cold gaze he started to open the car door hoping he could drive away and pretend he hadn t noticed but by then joseph was in the parking lot he was obviously agitated waving and babbling something about the kids needing him right away however annoyed or edgy glen might be with the father he would never ignore the needs of the kids and he immediately forgot about trying to pretend he hadn t noticed him there it never occurred to glen that joseph s behavior was completely out of character his first and only concern being for the kids all he could hear was the sense of urgency in the other man s tone and the almost panic stricken expression on his face where are they he asked and then without waiting for an answer he added in disgust i ll follow you but we might need an ambulance this time i don t care what your convictions are he pressed the button to unlock the car door yanking it open in a fit of temper he was leaning in to throw his medical bag in the back seat when he felt a sudden overwhelming jolt as something hit him hard between the shoulder blades he gasped at the blow and fell face first across the console it was like an electrical shock had robbed him of the ability to move his arms or legs and he struggled as someone folded him like a rag doll into the car he was beginning to lose consciousness but still he tried to twist away and instead came face to face with his attacker a much younger version of joseph was leaning over him and shoving him on to the floor carl you little prick glen snarled the words and was horrified when all that came out was a drunken mumble drool rolled out of the side of his mouth and down his chin what little reality there was came to him like snatches of scenes from a movie flickering in and out of focus he was partially awake now and he was being jostled around on the floor board of a car his car he recognized the feel of the engine slowing and accelerating each time it took another winding turn he fought to regain his senses as his body rocked with the motion of the car but the effort only made him more disoriented until suddenly he turned his head and vomited on the rough carpet that was chafing against the side of his face he blacked out for a few minutes and when he came to again everything was even more unclear with only fragments of voices and wispy impressions flitting here and there through his mind as everything slowly faded to black posted by rick daley at 3 13 pm 4 comments labels suspense query
