The Syndicate (Timewaves Book 1) - Plot & Excerpts
Taking a few hesitant steps down the street, I looked to see if he was waiting in a car nearby. No dice. I was just about to go back inside and call Charles, when I spotted him through the front window of the hat shop. He was inside, pretending to browse the insanely overpriced collection of headpieces while a flustered Naomi hovered nearby. The customs agent appeared to hang on his every word, though she said few in return. I watched their exchange from the sidewalk, gazing through the storefront like a voyeur. As though he sensed my presence, Charles shot me amused glances as he selected a gauzy lavender nightmare. Fashion-forward Naomi was trying to convince him that the peacock blue fascinator she held in her hands was a much better option. Only half-listening to her sale’s pitch, Charles discreetly gestured for me to join him inside. I shook my head, tapping my wrist to hurry him along. Taking my cue, he pointedly glanced between the two hats, silently asking my opinion.
