The connection went through and a woman answered on the second ring. When she called Urquhart to the phone, Liam heard children’s laughter and a dog barking in the distance. Obviously Urquhart was a family man.
What if he was cheating on his wife with Sara? Was that why she wanted Liam to call? In case the wife answered, a man asking to speak to her husband wouldn’t arouse suspicion.
“Urquhart,” a baritone voice said a few seconds later.
Liam gave a brief nuts-and-bolts explanation of the situation. Urquhart gasped. “Sara’s all right, isn’t she?”
The guy sounded convincing, Liam noted. “Yeah, she’s fine. A doctor checked her out, but she’s having residual memory problems.” He hoped he was making the situation sound light. Until Liam knew more, he trusted no one. If Sara was telling the truth and the car bomb explosion wasn’t a trap for him, then she was in serious danger. The fewer people who knew how vulnerable she was, the better. Liam’s suspicions of Urquhart were purely professional, he assured himself.
“How do I know you’re who you say you are?” Urquhart demanded accusingly.
Liam frowned as he watched Sara sip her coffee. “Here, let the lady tell you.” He held out the phone. Her lips tightened to a firm line and her hands clasped into fists. When he thought she would finally refuse, she reached for the phone with trembling fingers.
