he could have grown it in since Europe. If it’s him, he’s also changed his hair color.”
“What do you mean, if? Are you having doubts?”
“No. It’s him. My gut’s telling me that Sonja’s dead.”
“We agree. Nate’s got two choppers searching the cliffs along the coast. Did Kim tell you anything else that would help us with the search?”
“No, she never met the guy. All she knows is that he’s young, rich, gorgeous and calls himself Oscar. He told Sonja to dress for an adventure yesterday, but she didn’t know where he was taking her. I couldn’t really ask a lot of questions without making her suspicious of my cover.”
“That fits in with everything we already know about him. I’m sure the name’s an alias, but it could be helpful.” Dylan raised is hand as Nate drove by. “Nate’s here with a warrant. We’re going into Sonja’s place. Maybe we’ll get lucky.”
“Let me know.”
“Of course. I’ll drop by later and brief you and Ethan.”
“See you then.”

“Her place was clean. No mention of Oscar, her date or anything about him.” Dylan placed a laptop on the dining table. “Hopefully, I can get into this thing and find out something more.”
“It makes sense that she wouldn’t have anything about Oscar written down in her place. Mustn’t let her current companion know about her side interests.” Jerry dropped into the chair beside Dylan. “Any news on the search?”
“Nothing yet, and it’ll soon be dark. If they don’t locate her, they’ll pick it up first light.” Dylan began attacking the keys on Sonja’s laptop. “If I were a beautiful young woman, living the high life, what would my password be?”
“Any pets?” Ethan asked as he entered, his hair still wet from a shower.
“Nope, and it’s not her birthday, either.” Dylan kept working.
“Try Namaste and other yoga terms. According to Kim, she loved that stuff.” Jerry told him and watched as he tried several more times to open the program. “You could overnight it to Jimmy; I’m sure he has ways of getting inside.” Jerry hid her grin.
Dylan narrowed his eyes at her, as she knew he would. “The day a snot-nosed kid can beat me into a laptop is the day I’ll hang up my hat. Just back off and give me a minute, dammit.”
While getting under Dylan’s skin was one of her favorite things, Jerry hoped he was right this time. She’d hate for his ego to cost them precious time. “Alright, alright.” She held up her hands. “Shutting up now.”
“Are you two related?” Ethan asked with a straight face and nearly lost it when they both turned on him, eyes blaring.
“Of course we’re not related. Why in the world would you ask something like that?” Jerry asked.
“Because you bicker like siblings, that’s why. Sorry.” He gave her a sheepish grin and Jerry thought he looked good enough to eat.
“Hey, I’m in.” Dylan exclaimed. “Told ya.” He raised his eyebrows at Jerry.
“Okay, okay, you’re good. Now find us something.”
“Quit looking over my shoulder,” Dylan commanded. “Shouldn’t you be getting ready for your big night out?” He waggled his eyebrows.
“I’m going. Ethan, have you finished in the bathroom?”
“It’s all yours; just let me get my tux from the closet.”
 
By the time Jerry came back into the living room, Dylan and Ethan had their heads together over the laptop, peering at the computer screen.
“Did you find something?” She asked as she came through the door. Both men turned to look at her. Dylan’s reaction tickled her, but it was the sudden gleam in Ethan’s eyes that had her heart fluttering.
“Damn, Princess, you clean up good.” Dylan nodded approvingly.
“Thanks.” Jerry threw him a glance, then went to stand beside Ethan.
“You look wonderful.” He told her and touched her arm. “That shade of blue is perfect with your eyes.” The sincerity of his compliment made her pause. She had fallen in love with the sapphire blue
