Chapter 18: Vaneck

Ansel's hand found Micah's in the dark and pulled.

"This way," he said. "There's an exit on the left, behind the stage curtain. I counted the doors on the way in."

"You counted?"

"I read the fire plan on the wall by the door."

They ran along the front row with Astrid's laptop bag banging at her hip.

A man in a blazer came out of the dark with a baton.

Ansel caught the baton in one hand, bent it double and dropped it on the floor.

"Sorry," he said politely, and shoved the man into a row of empty seats.

Behind them, Vaneck's slow clapping stopped.

"Run if you like," Vaneck's voice called, light and pleasant. "It's a parking structure behind that door, and I have the keys to every level."

Astrid hit the exit bar with her shoulder.

They burst out into concrete and cold air.
