Ashes and Dust by Jeremy Bishop, David McAfee Page A

moment Kyle wrapped his hand around it, causing him to flinch and drop the weapon to the ground. He picked it up, inspecting the strange weapon. “Where did this come from?”
    “Same place as the safe,” Frost said. She motioned toward the south with her head. “Out there.”
    Griffin took the safe and turned it around. “Have you opened it yet?” Frost shook her head. “Not yet, but flip it over.”
    Griffin turned the safe around. The initials N.F. were engraved in the smooth, slightly scorched surface. Nelson Florider. “Renford Ellison.” He turned and struck out at a brisk pace.
    “Where are you going?” Frost asked, keeping pace.
    “Hardware store,” Griffin answered, and held up the safe. “It’s time to get some answers.”
    Kyle caught up with them. “What if the safe is empty?”
    “Then I’m going to tear this town apart until I find what I need to know.”
    “What...do you need to know?” Kyle asked.
    Griffin glanced at the doctor, his voice grim. “Everything. Every God-damned thing.”
