Chapter 17 Probing Conway Group

• Just as Aric was about to turn his head, he heard the rush of wind.
• Nahla had opened the window and slipped out, descending from the fifth floor by clinging to the drainpipe. She landed smoothly and disappeared into the crowd in less than thirty seconds.

Her agility and proficiency with a gun were anything but ordinary. Why had she come to Brightvale now? The timing made him uneasy. He could only hope his suspicions were wrong.
