    Summary

    It was supposed to be a clean mission—quiet in, quiet out. But when a forgotten outpost turns out to be a trap, Mac steps into the line of fire before Jack can stop him.

    Now Jack is left in the wreckage, desperate to hold onto a promise that’s slipping further away with every second.

    He’s always had Mac’s back.

    He just never thought he’d have to watch him fall.

    Summary

    LAKE COMO, ITALY

    The first thing Mac realized was that he was being carried, the second thing he realized was that he’d died.
    Death left a very specific taste in his mouth, ashy, like he’d taken a big mouthful of a burned out campfire.
    In addition to the taste — though that was always the most distinctive sign — was the bitter cold. Even being soaked in freezing water, as he also happened to be, failed to elicit the depths of cold that haunted him after a revival. It felt like his heart was pumping ice-water instead of blood.
    Suddenly he was being lowered, a hand cupping the back of his head on the way down to keep it from knocking against the ground. That alone was enough to cue Mac in on who’d been carrying him. In the list of people who cared about him, he didn’t know anyone else who was strong enough and stubborn enough to lug around his frozen corpse.

    Summary

    ”I’m sending you coordinates to the closest marina to the bank.”

    “H-hold on Matty—that’s not the only marina on the island.”

    “No, but it’s the closest, which makes it their most likely destination, and our best shot.”

    “And I’m not disagreeing with you! But—if you’re wrong…”

    Matty was wrong.

    Summary

    Hey! This is Jack the Dalton speaking. Probably couldn’t catch your call due to doing cool… bathroom tile salesman… stuff. Leave a message and I’ll hit you back up. Ciao!

    “I don’t know where I am right now.” Mac mumbled. He was aware he was slurring, slightly. He felt like he weighed a million pounds, or maybe like he’d been welded in place into his car. Immovable. Lethargic. His skin felt damp, he didn’t know if he was sweating or bleeding. He felt too cold to be sweating. “But I need help. Can you…”

    Mac closed his eyes. Can you what? Find me? Not leave me? Just talk to me?

    The voicemail beeped, marking an end to the message.

    Mac redialed.
