“One that makes me wonder how often you get involved with women who are part of a case you’re working on.”

“Three.” Officer Ryan Spencer spoke from the doorway of the room. The rest of the team swiveled to stare at him. Not exactly the entrance he had wanted to make on his first day at his new job. He ignored the stares, strode to the table and pulled out the only empty chair, at the end opposite the commander.
“Who are you?” a sharp-nosed, lean man who sat behind an open laptop—Simon Woolridge—demanded.
“This is Ryan Spencer, with Customs and Border Protection,” Commander Ellison said. “Our newest team member.”
Ryan sat. “Sorry I’m late,” he said. The drive from Montrose had taken longer than he had anticipated, partly because he had gotten behind a caravan of RVs making their way into Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park, where the Ranger Brigade task force’s headquarters were located.
