Dupris never left anything to chance, he sent two, two-man teams to grab Marsh. When the first team failed and got arrested, the second team swung into action, hoping to do a much better job.
“See, I told you she’d show up sooner or later,” one of the men said.
“Yeah, but we can’t snatch her right now because she’s with that cop,” his partner replied.
