It was like a Black Ops mission. It was so damn lame that I’d been saying that since I was eleven, and here I was, a grown man – almost – hiding in a bush outside a diner, still pretending I was a soldier on a mission. But it helped. It helped me believe I was doing something good. Something worth doing. I knew in reality it was pointless. What was I going to accomplish? What did I want to accomplish? I had no idea, but here I was, probably standing in dog shit, and definitely wishing I’d just stayed in and watched a movie with Skye, waiting for something to scribble in my notebook. I wouldn’t give up. I couldn’t give this up. I grabbed the apple from my pocket and bit into it as the headlights of the car I’d been waiting for rolled over the empty car park and it pulled up in its usual spot. Instead of waiting in the vehicle like he usually did, he got out of the car and walked into the diner. I was glad I hadn’t found the money to buy the night vision goggles I’d seen in the gadget shop in town. I didn’t have enough money for them and the taxi ride here, but I wouldn’t need them tonight anyway. I could see the couple clearly as they took a seat by the window, and he reached out to caress the woman’s hair. He did that a lot. I’d seen him do it loads of times when she joined him in the car. I stayed low but edged closer. I was a few metres away from the diner and the wind rustled the trees by themselves, but I couldn’t be too careful. I felt afraid when I was investigating alone, which was all the time since I couldn’t trust anybody to help me. When I was around strangers, I knew I was safe, but here? I wasn’t. Skye thought I was working. Mum and Dad didn’t care where I really was, and Beth was too far away to think about it. I wished she was here, though. I wanted us to all be together, where we could keep each other safe. Where I could keep everyone safe. I ignored the pounding of my heart and my sweaty palms, throwing the apple away and crunching the leaves beneath my feet as I moved to get a better view. I pulled out my journal and tried to describe everything I could see, scribbling notes in the dark with the pencil I’d sharpened with my penknife while I waited for the car. I needed the knife. Just in case. It was the reason I stopped learning in school, the mission. I could pick up a textbook and catch up whenever I wanted, but I had to concentrate on this until I could figure everything out. The man laughed, and the woman followed, but neither looked real. I knew fake when I saw it because I’d been doing it since I was a kid. My skin prickled and I felt the hairs on my arms stand up.

Curtis didn't have an easy life and when he sends Skye away he seems to get darker. He ends up working for Charlie who steals from people to make her money, while still fighting and doing some investigating on what happened to his friend Oliver. When he has no other choice he goes after Skye to protect her. The deeper he digs the more he finds the circle coming too close to home, and his family could be in just as much danger as Skye and him.
