CHAPTER THIRTEEN: PLAN A
"Don't fall for it."
Dominic grabbed my wrist before I could dial the number from the text. His grip was tight. I barely felt it because I was panicking.
"That's my son, " I said.
"That's a photo, " he said. "It could be old or fake. Victoria was just arrested, Aria. She's in custody and can't make phone calls."
"Then who sent this?" I asked.
"Someone working for her maybe, " he said. "Someone trying to scare you and make you do what they want."
Agent Chen stepped forward. "Mr. Voss is right. We have Victoria in custody. Her phone was. There's no way she sent that message."
"Then explain the photo, " I said.
"I don't know yet, " she said. ". My team is working on it. We tracked the message to a location downtown."
"Where?" I demanded.
"Penthouse " she said. "But it's registered to a company."
We took three cars. FBI agents in front Dominic and me in the more agents behind. The drive took eight minutes. It felt like eight hours.
