‘Bad day for Lewis.’
Jones laid out more ledgers and spreadsheets on the table. ‘I brought up all his case files for the past two years and couldn’t find anything in regards to what he told me about the budget. So I started doing some looking on my own.’
Sullivan glanced at the pages; he wasn’t very good with numbers. ‘I don’t know what any of this means.’
Jones stabbed the printouts with his finger at various points. ‘Have a look here and here.’
‘Look, I wasn’t kidding before. I have no idea what any of this means.’
‘The money allocated by the state to the department is 1.4 billion dollars a year. But only 1.37 billion has reached the streets.’ Jones tilted his head to see Sullivan’s reaction. ‘Do you see it?’
‘No?’
‘There’s two hundred and fifty million dollars missing.’
‘It wasn’t me.’
Jones let it slide and shifted his attention back to the papers in front of him. ‘I looked into it. A name came up . . . Hailstrum.’
Sullivan paused, looked sideways at Jones. ‘Patrick Wilson had a long reach.’
‘Wilson’s been dead three years.’ Jones tapped the papers on the desk. ‘As of last month, this skim is still active.’
Sullivan clenched his fist; busted knuckles pointed out in random directions. ‘Patrick Wilson wasn’t Hailstrum.’

Dear reader,
How insane was that? That part where they beat the hell out of him with that bag of smashed glass makes me shudder even thinking about it now.
If you’re still in the mood for murder, mayhem and insane action check out the next installment in this series, Out of Exile. It’s a killer continuation that picks up straight after Reloaded. After three years rotting in a cell, Angus is busted out of prison and thrown into the middle of a police war, where Patterson, the very man who locked him up needs his help.
To download Angus’ next rampage head straight here: XXXX
And if you want to leave a quick review on Amazon that would be awesome.
We hope you had fun! Thank you for reading! You rock!
