The Portal (A Delphi Group Thriller Book 2) (42 page)

There was a long pause. Finally, Carmen asked, “I’m sorry… if you don’t have reception there, then how am I speaking to you?”

Zane cringed. “Okay, the part about the reception is true… but it’s only true some of the time. You wouldn’t believe how bad—”

“You know what?” Carmen asked.

“What?”

“You’re a certified jerk.”

Zane laughed and blew on the phone’s mic. “I’m sorry, Carmen. I can’t hear you. We’re having signal problems again.”

“You’re the king of jerks!” she screamed.

Zane ended the call and dropped the phone onto a towel at his feet.

Turning toward the others, he lifted his empty bottle and asked, “Can I get anyone another drink?”

John Sneeden

John was born on the coast of North Carolina, and thanks to his mother, a voracious reader, he began discovering books at a very early age. If not outside playing basketball or fishing with friends, he could be found curled up in a living room chair with an Edgar Rice Burroughs novel. In fact, it was Burroughs who first kindled his love for escapist fiction.

After a twenty-five year career in banking, John decided to turn his life-long passion for reading into a career as an author. He still lives in the southern United States, and when not writing he loves to travel and follow NHL hockey.
