Curtis and his two men had spent a mostly fruitless day attempting mobile surveillance of some men who had spent a few hours outside of the walls of Maadi Land and Sea. Kolt brought his team into the conference room and Curtis came in a moment later. Kolt said, “We took a look at Rhine and Stone from both sides, and there is definitely something up. Whatever is going on inside those buildings is a hell of a lot more important than some shipping concern. With all these security goons on the outside of the buildings, it’s guaranteed they’ve got guns on the inside, too. They are most definitely protecting something or someone.” “Something like Libyan arms,” Curtis said confidently. “Maybe,” allowed Kolt. “But it’s too early to know that for sure.” He could see Curtis’s mind was already made up about what was going on inside the walls of the shipping company. He would not let himself fall into groupthink without further analysis of the target. It was a dangerous mistake that he was determined to avoid.
