Secrets Will Kill - Rachel (the top 100 crime novels of all time TXT) 📗

"What do you mean?
"Keeta is betraying us."
"What?"
He hands me a pair of scorching black sunglasses. "She is, I can prove it."
"No, no! Keeta wouldn't! I know her better than that!" I swallow back tears. What if she is betraying me?
Boss rolls his eyes then sighs, “Look at the proof.” He holds out a blue folder that reads in capital letter CONFIDENTIAL on the front. I squeeze my hands tight.
"Go ahead, open it." He says as he sits in a black cushioned chair. I take the folder and read aloud, "Keeta Laya, also known as Lisa Hanson has been found working with another company. The L.S.C.A a group that takes down any spy company other than national companies. They are known to spy on other companies for a small wage.

"Look at the pictures, she's one of them." Boss says. I look. Not one picture doesn't prove it. Every picture is of her at a crime scene involving the death of a spy from companies we have dealt with, some of them are pictures of her casually passing a bag to another person in the middle of a sidewalk.

"Oh she does, and you know it." The sunglasses shatter into pieces. Blood oozes out of my hand, onto the folder and drips rhythmically floor. I choke back more tears. I fiercely turn my head up to look at Boss. "I know she doesn't." I growl, "She doe...." I go silent. I hear footsteps, Keeta's footsteps. I turn my head and look in awe.
