After New Year's Blast
Chapter Nine
Captain Kate Beckett was nervous. It's been two days now with nothing going on with the Martins case. She has Sergeant Esposito and Detective Kevin Ryan calling all of there street sources to find out why there hasn't been a move made on Martins, Geraldine and her husband Brian.
She was sipping her coffee in the office when a call was coming on the office phone. There was no I.D. on the caller. So she had no idea who she is talking to right now.
"Captain Beckett this is Michael Smith. Listen to me really good. I can't be talking too long on the phone. In regard to the case of Jerry Martins. The contract to kill him his sister and her husband Brian has been cancelled." He says with a slight couch in his throat from smoking too much over the years.
"Why Mr. Smith? I just don't understand what is really going on at this point." She takes another sip of her coffee to calm her nerves a little.
"They decided that too much money was already spent on the contract. However there is a new contract to try and wipe out Collins Edgewater. Some one from California has arrived in New York City to finish out his contract. I suggest you speak with you're superiors to get extra help to save this man so that he can talk to you and other authorities."
"Collins Edgewater works for the cable company at C.B.S. century building. He's not shown up nor have we been able to find him, Michael. What else can I do?" She was frustrated trying to figure out the case even though her old source lives in New Jersey the past five years with his wife and child.
"I don't know what to say Kate. His life will end soon whether or not your people are not able to find him before it's too late."
"I understand Michael. But tell me something. Why the hit on Martins, his sister and Brian? I find no connection between the three to understand why at all."
"There is a connection. You and you're people just can't see it right now. I suggest you look further into the profiles of Brian's family history and his father's wealth and military back ground. It's all I am going to say right now. I have to go now Kate." He ends the phone conversation with a loud click.
She was shaking her head with going over all that was said by Michael Smith. She was surprised he called in spite the rumors that he has been dead the past five years. It was mostly a smoke screen to keep himself and his family safe from the old Bracken organization. She finished up the last of her coffee to speak with her detectives from inside the bull pen.
