Every Last Liar – Kate Francis

She was talking too fast, barely pausing to breathe. “We’ll split up. Two of us can search the outbuildings, while the other one can stay out here and keep a lookout—maybe on the roof? They can keep an eye on Team Ellis and watch for signs of Bates sneaking around, now that we know he’s here.”

The gas can discovery had kicked off that dangerous feeling inside her again—hope; now that it was out of the box, she just couldn’t put it back in. “What do we do if we find him?” Alex asked, frowning. “Look, I don’t know. I don’t have all the answers.

But I know one thing —Bates knows us. He knows all our worst secrets. Somehow, in some way, he has to be close to us or connected. If we can find him, just get to him, we can figure this out. I know it.” Alex nodded and chewed on his lip. Raya didn’t speak or move. Ana felt a wave of frustration. “Guys, this is our chance to get out of here.

Our first real chance. If we figure out where Bates is hiding, then he’s not untouchable anymore. We can stop him.” Why weren’t they more excited? “We can’t just ignore this! We have to try. Otherwise, we might as well just give up and line up for our turn on the red truck.” “Don’t say that!” Raya shouted, speaking for the first time since Ana had arrived. Her black-ringed eyes had a hollowed-out, empty expression. “I’m sorry, Raya. I’m just trying to…” “How can you even stand here and talk like that?

Planning and…and… going on like this is all a game? Caden is dead. He was murdered in front of us. I voted for him. And you—you lied to his face, Ana. You told him he’d be okay. How could you do that?” Raya turned away. “You’re just like him, you know? You’re just like Ellis.” The words were out there in the hot, dry air.

The kind of air you’d expect to take your last breath in while gasping for help as you tried to saw zip ties off your wrists with a rusty nail.

An arched, corrugated roof is lit by a string of bare bulbs, crudely nailed along the spine. The hum of a generator reverberates, making the walls vibrate.
