Dark Revelations Of Joan Of Arc Secret Lives Of Librarians 1 – Lorna Tedder

At first I’d thought it was a shadow, a cloud passing between the sun and Earth. I didn’t recognize the automobile, but the driving patterns were familiar. The distance from the center of the road, the way the automobile hugged the curves. The reason I never carried a cell phone. The reason I changed automobiles frequently. The reason I cut my deals in currency and numbered bank accounts. Interpol agent Analise Reisner. As much as I hated to admit it, she’d saved my life back in France.
After I’d saved hers. Simon had sent me to follow her and find a Black Madonna statue she supposedly had, but in the end, we wound up working together to destroy Simon’s electromagnetic device, which several strong Adriano henchmen had been very determined to fire off to cause a massive power outage in Europe. I’d left the scene battered and limping, my knee twisted in pain and promising an end to my physically active career in artifact acquisitions.
We’d left that confrontation in a draw, but we’d both known that she had no choice but to come after me later. I yawned, trying to unplug my ears and rid myself of the vague ringing. The radiological electromagnetic energy Myrddin had spoken of still played havoc with my senses. The last time my ears rang like this was during the fifth week of the six-week Joan of Arc seminar. Was there a connection? If Reisner caught me red-handed with centuries-old tiles and a relic proving Joan of Arc had a twin, Interpol would declare it a mighty victory.
It would be one thing for Reisner to arrest me based on an alleged history of art thefts, but I’d never be able to explain how a manuscript worth millions had legitimately fallen into my possession. I owed the athletic blonde a grudging respect for her abilities, but not enough to spend the rest of my life wearing a bland prison uniform. In my rearview mirror I watched the Saab appear and then disappear on the horizon.
Reisner was closing in too fast and she knew it.
