Practical Demonkeeping
“As they approached Effrom and Amanda’s house, they spotted a beige Dodge parked in the driveway.
“Do you know what kind of car they drive?” Travis asked.
Brine was slowing down. “An old Ford, I think.”
“Don’t slow down. Keep going,” Travis said.
“But why?”
“I’d bet anything that Dodge is a police car. There’s a whip antenna pinned down on the back.”
“So what? You haven’t done anything illegal.” Brine wanted to get it over with and get some sleep.
“Keep going. I don’t want to answer a lot of que...stions. We don’t know what Catch has been doing. We can come back later, after the police leave.”
The Djinn said, “He has a point, Augustus Brine.”
“All right.” Brine gunned the pickup and sped by.
In a few minutes they were sitting in Jenny’s kitchen listening to the answering machine. They had gone in the back way to avoid the burnt, doughy mess in the front yard.
“Well,” Travis said, resetting the machine, “that buys us a little time before we have to explain it to Jenny.”MoreLess
