World Walker 2: The Unmaking Engine - Plot & Excerpts
In Walt’s yard, the buzz and dart of hummingbirds and the scuttle of lizards were the only sounds. Walt sat in a garden chair watching the shadows lengthen and the last of the light slide away. He hadn’t had a drink all day. He checked his pockets one last time. Passport—not in his own name, naturally—his wallet, and a small key. No phone—it was on the desk in his office. He stripped all his credit cards out of the wallet and tossed them into the trash, leaving $3,000 cash which he rolled up and put in his pants pocket. Walt looked back at the house. Gaudy, opulent, over-the-top, its design based on the Taj Mahal, for thirty years it had stood as a beacon of bad taste in a neighborhood famous for it. He admitted he felt a sentimental attachment to the hideous piece of architecture. Leaving it was one of the sacrifices he was going to have to make. The car, much of his money, and the few friends he’d made in Las Vegas—none close—were others. He felt few regrets about any of them.
