Siren's Call (A Rainshadow Novel) - Plot & Excerpts
Arthur Gill, Slade, and two of Slade’s officers were grouped around him. The lab techs had all been awakened and now formed a circle behind them. There was a very anxious vibe in the small crowd. Everyone looked at the empty glass-and-steel lockbox on the shelf. A murmur of shock and disbelief went through the assembled staff. “You’re right, Mr. Coppersmith.” Dr. Hayashi shook his head. “The items are gone.” He glanced at the bell and the headphones that Rafe held. “I swear, all of those artifacts were in that box yesterday afternoon when we ran the daily inventory check.” “I can vouch for that,” Susan Bowen said very firmly. “I believe you both,” Rafe said. “Obviously someone removed the artifacts after the last inventory check—someone with access to the lab and the vault.” Gill nodded, his dour face sinking deeper into gloom. “So, we’re talking about an inside job.” “Looks like it,” Rafe said. “Chief Attridge has requested permission to conduct a search of the lab and the lockers of all personnel who have entered the facility within the past forty-eight hours.”
