Oh, HECK no……something tells me that if Lockheed wants Sapphire’s forgiveness for all the stuff she put her through towards the end of the last novel, she’s going to have to try a bit harder than this. Then again, Sapphire does seem to be at one of her most lowest points against the Savage Gang, having caused the leader to escape at least twice; maybe Sapphire will just willingly take the information from Lockheed as a way of “restoring” her honor and credibility (which I assume is unfounded up to this point) and just move on from there. Kind of like a “I’ll take any lead I can get, even from the person who tried to violate me” type of situation.

But oh, boy…..Savage better never find out where Lynch is, or he’s REALLY going to kill the latter now that he’s actively working with an FBI contact against the Gang. Or maybe Howard Vincent will find out first and either make Lynch “disappear” or stealthily convince Lockheed to end her partnership with him. He (Lynch) is in a safe house right now, and those are usually said to be one of the most secure places on Earth for high-ranking officials and their affiliates, so…..I don’t know; I guess I could hope.

This is certainly going to be an interesting meeting between Sapphire and Lockheed, if one is indeed coming up. With Sapphire (in her mind, at least) having been “bested” by Savage twice, and Lockheed increasingly desperate to get to the Gang, maybe Sapphire can put her hate (and Lockheed her lust) aside so that they can collaborate? Even just a little bit?

I’m hoping they do! The Savage Gang is way too much of a threat for there to be infighting now!
