"Sir, we have a lead. I'm outside now. May | cin to report?"
"Cin."
Thomas entered, wrapped in the cold night air. Joshua poured a cup of warm water and sat on the sofa with a
stern gaze. "Speak."
Thomas kept his head down, cautiously glancing at Joshua. "The people who took Sue are connected to Chris."
