Charlie Santa Lucia had gotten into plenty of messes in her life,
but this one had to be the most ridiculous. Why had she thought driving a
cherry-red BMW convertible down a road to nowhere, deep in the Alaskan
wilderness—with a goldfish tank strapped into the passenger seat—would
solve her problems?

Now she was trapped on a one-lane road with no exit, with another car
in hot pursuit. How the heck was she going to scramble out of this one?
It had all made sense at the time. Sort of.
The BMW belonged to her best friend Molly, and she didn’t even have
the title, so couldn’t trade it in for a less eye-catching car. The goldfish
belonged to another best friend, Lila. Since she didn’t know how long she
was going to be on the run, she couldn’t leave Goldilocks behind.
She checked the rearview mirror. Yup, that same vehicle was right
behind her, about a half mile back. Following steadily, not trying to catch
up and not falling back. As if he knew that once she reached Firelight
Ridge, there would be nowhere else to go, so he could just take his time.
Toy with her, and then pounce. Like a cat waiting for a mouse to hit a wall.
The car looked official—dark sedan, tinted windows, classic lawenforcement vibe—but hadn’t turned on a siren or lights. It had been
waiting for her in Klutna, the tiny village where the road to Firelight Ridge
began. It had pulled out behind her and stayed a consistent distance back
ever since.
Testing, she pressed the accelerator and sped up just a tad. The car
behind her did the same. She couldn’t see much about the driver in her
rearview mirror because the BMW kept jerking and bouncing and swerving.
It wasn’t designed to handle the deep muddy ruts and winter-worn potholes
of a road that had been buried under several feet of snow all winter.
Charlie wasn’t used to driving roads like this, either. All she could do
was keep a grip on the wheel and mentally apologize to Molly for what she
was putting Red through.
Was poor Goldilocks okay? She seemed to be taking the bumpy ride in
stride. Maybe it brought back vestigial memories of storms at sea.
“Don’t you worry, Goldie. I’m taking you back to Lila. You won’t have
to put up with me much longer.”
She took another peek in the rearview mirror.
