Chapter 21 - The Highway Escape
Three months into her sentence at the federal penitentiary in West Virginia, Victoria sat in a prison transport van.
The vehicle was driving along a winding mountain highway during a torrential summer thunderstorm.
Suddenly, a heavy black pickup truck smashed into the side of the transport van, forcing it off the road into a ravine.
Two masked gunmen armed with tactical rifles jumped out of the pickup truck, shooting out the van's lock mechanisms.
They pulled Victoria from the wrecked vehicle, tossing her a dark jacket and a forged passport.
"Evelyn sent us... move fast before the state police helicopter arrives!" the lead gunman growled.
Victoria’s eyes flashed with wild, vengeful fury as she pulled on the dark jacket.
"Where is David Vance?" Victoria demanded, her voice dripping with pure venom.

"He's at his Virginia estate with the kid," the gunman answered. "We have a boat waiting in Norfolk."
