I took the envelope inside, sat down to open it, and looked at a plane ticket. The destination was Miami, Florida. While I puzzled over its implication, my phone rang. Not recognizing the number, I almost didn't answer, but a feeling nudge me to do so.
"Hello?" I continued staring at the ticket, puzzling over questions of why and who.
"Hello Lilly. It's so good to hear your voice. How have you been?"
"Who is this?"
"I hope you like Florida. It's pleasant this time of the year."
I felt myself tense, hearing the British accent. I didn't have to make much of a leap to guess who I was talking to. In a flash, the memory of my psychic vibe came back to me, the one I warned Kline about. "What do you want, Brooke?"
"I want you to use the ticket. I want you to come to Florida."
"Why should I?" The sense of panic threatened to overwhelm me and destroy any chance at remaining calm and rational.
"Quite simple, dear. If you don't, your boyfriend becomes a dead friend. And I'm sure you don't want that to happen, do you?"
"If you hurt him …"
"Just get on the plane, tonight, and you won't have to worry. And Lilly? It would be a mistake to call him."
