She knew Zack was lying.
He had no intention of sharing information with her. At least, not willingly. But thanks to the global positioning device, she would track his every movement. If he got a lead on her sister’s location, Sabrina would head there as soon as he made his move.
And in the meantime, maybe she’d find the location first. Zack was wasting his time going to Sacramento. If there had been any clues at Shelby’s house, Sabrina would have found them already.
They needed to focus on the kidnapper, not her sister. And so Sabrina would study the files using her training and instincts to get inside the kidnapper’s head. Then she’d take her father’s bag of tricks—and her gun—and go hunting.

“Right.” She jumped to her feet and sprinted from her small bedroom into the study area of the dorm suite she shared with her sister Michelle. Then she yanked open the door, ready to demand a million details.
