Sarah Armstrong - 01 - Singularity - Plot & Excerpts
The second morning in Killdeer, except for the fact that I’d had a few hours sleep and breakfast, wasn’t any different from the first. Our only accomplishment: slowing the entire rail system in Texas to a crawl. At our little station alone, trains backed up fifty miles out of the terminal, waiting to be inspected. Although the captain had called in reinforcements, it seemed hopeless. Even if Gabriel lived in a vacuum, if he’d missed the news reports on the task force, he’d figure something was up when the trains bottlenecked. The hilly terrain around Killdeer didn’t have the woods to disappear into that, say, the piney woods of east Texas offered. But there were plenty of gullies and oak trees big enough to hide a man. Not to mention barns and stables. Or maybe he’d just hide out near the tracks, waiting to hop a train heading in the opposite direction. Couple that dismal outlook with a gaggle of reporters milling outside the terminal and news choppers circling overhead, and we were just going through the motions, carrying on with what had become a charade because none of us really knew what else to do.
