In the end, Derek couldn't do much at all. He made inquiries to the police and to the main GTG office about what was going on, but got no satisfactory answers from either side.
Unlike Tristan, who got his information from Vargas via a phone call only a couple of hours after their conversation.
"My police contact says that someone brought an anonymous letter to one of the LAPD divisions. That went up the food chain, and now something big is brewing. But it's all kept under wraps, on a need-to-know basis. From what he heard, picking up your guys was only a part of the plan."
"I see. This was all you got, Mr. Vargas?"
"Yes. My advice–look behind your back. That's where the traitors usually stand."
Tristan scowled. This confirmed his suspicions.
"Thank you. I will speak to you about our other agreements soon, but I have to deal with something else first."
"I understand," Vargas chuckled. "Good luck rat hunting."
