Chapter 8 - The Federal Cavalry Arrives
A convoy of three black federal SUVs and a marked California Highway Patrol cruiser roared onto the desert airstrip from the perimeter road.

Two armed federal marshals flanked him, moving swiftly to slap heavy steel handcuffs around Eleanor’s wrists.
“This is an outrage! My attorneys will have your badge by sundown!” Eleanor shrieked, kicking her designer heels against the dusty asphalt.
Agent Miller ignored her furious protests, turning his attention toward Daniel, who was still groaning on the ground.

“Daniel Calloway, you are also under arrest for your role in the attempted assassination of your wife,” Miller stated, cuffing him as well.
Claire watched the two monsters who tried to destroy her being hauled away in handcuffs, feeling a profound weight lift from her soul.
