'Better call ahead, put them on the wrong track,' said Ava, flashing Jack a nervous smile as she drove smoothly through the gates. 'Unless you like the sound of that full ID check.'

'Whatever.' Ava stepped on the gas a little. 'For better or worse, we're in.'

Behind them, the gate buzzed slowly shut.
