Excerpt
Burt Lyle's lips curled into a sinister smile. He looked every inch the killer he was as he sliced the crudely made knife directly across the prison guard's throat and shoved him to the ground to bleed out. “Now that felt good,” he said.
Lyle, powerfully built with beefy arms and a thick neck, quickly wiped the sweat from his forehead, leaving a thin trail of blood. He studied the guard's body for a moment and then shook his head.
A look of surprise froze on the guard's face as he must have realized Lyle had betrayed him. Instead of showering the guard with riches from hidden loot acquired in a past robbery as promised, Lyle killed him instead. You idiot, Lyle thought, never trust a con.
Now, armed with the dead man's handgun and rifle, Lyle looked around the wrecked bus. He expected more armed guards to confront him at any second. Surprisingly, the scene remained calm, but he knew it wouldn't last long.
Evidently, his two companions had made quick work of the remaining guards, but as soon as somebody figured out the prison bus was missing, an all-out manhunt would ensue.
Lyle glanced at the rangy prisoner with sunken cheeks walking toward him, and he knew his looks were deceptive. The man nicknamed Scarecrow had easily taken down men twice his size in the prison yard.
“We done here, Burt?” the man asked as he used a key to remove the shackles around Burt's ankles.
“Yeah, let's get out of here before the law figures out something happened.”
A third man eased himself up from one of the damaged seats. Digger hadn't been Burt's first choice to include in the escape plan, but he had access to a cabin deep in the forest that no one knew about. It would be the perfect hideout until things blew over, and Digger wouldn't be that hard to get rid of permanently.
But first, Burt had some unfinished business to attend to sooner rather than later. He'd promised to put a knife in the fed who had put him in prison, and that was one promise he planned to keep.
