"And why did they do that?" Sophia Black Beltaire wanted to know.

"You can figure that out," Ric answered. "It happened in a state park, the governor doesn't want anything to upset tourism, doesn't want to start a panic."

Ric glanced at Craig before answering. "The governor of Texas. The killing took place at Pedernales Falls State Park-only about an hour from here. And the agency in charge is the Texas Rangers."

Silence blanketed the room for a long moment.

"That's practically in our backyard," Jonah Grey pointed out.

The first Night Seekers case had been assigned to Jonah. It had also been in Texas but south of them, near the border of Mexico. Dante noted that as Ric spoke, Jonah reached automatically for his wife Dakota's hand. They had met during that case and both still had terrible memories of it.
