descended. Griffen’s eyebrow shot up. “Not to the newspapers.
    Come on, Mack. Within hours they’d have an entire history of her being in mental institutions. They’d discredit her so fast she wouldn’t know what hit her.”
    “She knew that. But it would still be out there and the evidence would be where everyone could see it. She’d ruin them.”
    Mack. Joe Spagnola’s on the rooftop across from me. He’s spotted Shepherd’s men and I’m afraid he thinks they’re watching Jaimie, Gideon reported.
    Mack sighed. “How well do you know Spagnola?”
    “He’s my best friend’s son. A good man. I’ve known him since he was a kid.”
    “And you trust him,” Mack said.
    “Yes.”
    Mack turned around. “Paul. You feeling better?”

    “Not much. I need to lie down for a while.”
    “How much can you tell about a man by his energy? Can you tell if he lies?”
    “It depends on whether or not he believes the lie. In other words, if he believes he’s telling the truth, there’s no way of knowing differently.”
    Signal him in, Gideon. Tell him we’re running a couple of missions and could use some help.
    “I hope you’re right about him, Top,” Mack said, finally giving his friend a title of friendly respect. “Paul, after you see Spagnola and tell me what you think, I want you to get some sleep. All of you will need to rest up. I’m going to need you, Kane. We’ll hash this out and come up with a plan of action.”
    “Plan of action?” Griffen echoed.
    “Let’s take the guns,” Mack said. “We’re GhostWalkers. We get in and get out like the ghosts we are. No one knows we’re here. Madigan loses his shipment and Shepherd either is dead or goes home empty-handed. We don’t have a lot to lose.”
    “You have to track them,” Griffen said.
    Mack shook his head. “We don’t have to track the weapons. We’ve got four of them here. We only need to let one of them get away. We just have to figure out how to put one of those nice little homing chips under his skin.”
    “I see your point.”
    “Is Rhianna still out of the country?” Mack asked.
    Griffen nodded. “There’s no way to use her. She’s still on loan to the Mossad, Mack. I can’t pull her back. Can we use Jaimie?”
    “No way. Don’t even think about it. Jaimie doesn’t work as a field operative.
    Rhianna can handle it, but not Jaimie. It was just a thought because we know her.
    We’ll find another solution.”
    Joe’s coming toward the warehouse, Mack. Don’t let Javier kill him.
    He is over six feet, Mack pointed out.
    The sound of Gideon’s laughter pushed into his mind, lightening his mood. There is that, boss. He’s a pretty bastard, isn’t he?
    Jaimie looked at him.
    Gideon’s amusement increased. Well, I could see why he needs to die, then. Six feet, good-looking, and Jaimie looking at him. He’s a dead man walking.

    Mack laughed softly. “Joe’s at the door. Kane, you want to bring him up? Gideon thinks Javier might do him in and, although I tend to agree with Javier on who needs killing most of the time, we might have need of Joe.”
    “I read in the reports that many of you have become more aggressive,” Griffen said. “I’m beginning to think it’s true.”
    Mack stayed silent. He might trust Sergeant Major with his own life, but he was not going to report that their psychic talents were growing stronger. Or that Gideon and Joe had a different energy that helped make it impossible for other psychics to spot them. Jaimie was amazing with the things she could do—especially that. The GhostWalkers, including Paul now, had to stick together and believe in one another.
    They had no other choice. The deck was stacked against them. In the end, Sergeant Major had spent a lifetime in the Corps. He might feel compelled to report when asked, and Mack wasn’t going to put him in the position of choosing between his men and his career.
    Coming in, Mack, Kane sent.
    “Paul, can you manage to make it over here to the table?” Mack asked.
    “No problem, boss.” The kid was game and Mack’s respect for him grew. Using psychic ability was draining and performing surgery psychically had to drain one’s strength even more. Paul hadn’t complained once.
    Marc and Lucas closed in from either side and helped him as he staggered over to the table. Mack pretended not to notice. The kid deserved his pride remaining intact.
    Paul dropped into a chair, taking the one just out of the light,
