.Mrs.Day would have seen theletter Leroy Gorman had mailed in Albert's mailbox, and noted the returnaddress, and made her $100 call.And in such a small community they could havefound a stranger.Not quickly, perhaps, because Albert obviously had thephotograph and they didn't.But they could have found him.Apparently theydidn't try.Why not?Chee sighed.What about the card? Leroy Gorman said he'd mailed the Polaroidphotograph in an envelope and hadn't written the warning on it.But thephotograph had "Postage Due" stamped on it, and an address.What explainedthat? Two photographs? Hardly possible with a Polaroid print.Albert Gormanhad told old man Berger he received the photograph from his brother, that hewas worried.The "Wish you were here" note Leroy said he'd written wouldhardly provoke worry.The "Don't trust nobody" message would.Chee closed his eyes, shutting out the moonlight and the sound of Mr.Page 103 ABC Amber Palm Converter, http://www.processtext.com/abcpalm.htmlLittleben's chanting as best he could to better reproduce the scene on theSilver Threads lawn.There was Mr.Berger, using his hands to tell the storyof the blond man coming, of Albert Gorman slamming the door on the blond man'shand.Gorman had told Berger that he wasn't supposed to go to Shiprock, but hewas going anyway.Berger believed the blond man had come to prevent that.Thathadn't made sense to Chee then, and it made no sense now.If they hadn't foundLeroy, they would have wanted Al to go find him for them.What if they hadfound him.Would it matter then? Perhaps.Abruptly Chee sat bolt upright, eyes open.It would matter a lot if the manAlbert Gorman found when he found the trailer was not his brother.What if theMcNair people had found Leroy in his trailer, and removed him, and replacedhim? But that couldn't possibly work.Chee did a quick scan of his memory forreasons it couldn't work.There were none.Upchurch, who would have recognized the switch instantly, wasdead.Farmer, the only man in the u.s.d.a's office Upchurch had trusted withhis witnesses, was far away working for a private law firm in San Francisco.Who did that leave who would know Leroy Gorman? Sharkey? Not likely.Sharkeywould know he had one under his wing, would be in telephone contact, would bealert.But he would also stay away to avoid drawing any attention to the man.Looking back on it, Chee could never say exactly when enlightenment came.First he finally really understood how the postcard had originated.LeroyGorman must have realized he had been found.They must have sent Vaggan todispose of him.Perhaps he'd seen Vaggan first.He would have known instantlythat the Witness Protection Program had failed.He had been trying to talk hisbrother into cooperating with the Feds.Now he knew that was a fatal mistake.He'd be desperate to warn his brother.He'd managed to jot the address and thewarning on the only thing he had with him that would drop through a mailboxslot-the Polaroid print."Don't trust nobody" included the fbi, the McNairbunch, and everyone else.After that breakthrough, the rest of it became clear and simple.The death ofUpchurch must have triggered it, and it didn't matter whether Shaw was right,or the coroner.Probably the death had been natural.What mattered was thatMcNair knew of it quickly, and recognized the chance it offered.Upchurch'ssecrecy had been the downfall of Clan McNair, but now it presented McNair away out, a witness switch.It made what had happened at the Begay hogantotally logical.Everything had to be done to avoid raising any question,drawing any attention to the man in the aluminum trailer at Shiprock.Onceagain Frank Sam Nakai's immutable law of cause and motivation was confirmed.About then, Jim Chee began thinking of who the man he'd been calling LeroyGorman might really be, and the implication of what this man was doing.And herealized that if things went as planned he might not leave Mesa Gigante alive.And neither would Margaret Billy Sosi.Chapter 26Chee unlocked the glove box, fumbled among the maps, tools, and papers in it,and pulled out his pistol.It was a short-barreled.38 caliber revolver, andChee looked at it without pleasure.Nothing against this particular pistol; itwas just that Chee had no fondness for any of them and wasn't particularlygood at using them [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
