Used to stretches of radio silence, James had been thrilled to see the sunset cityscape and “Hello from…” peeking out from the junk mail. Ben hadn’t sent him a postcard since their early days. Then he’d flipped it over.
Doing great…see you soon….
How annoying. He was about to throw it away with the brochures when an anomaly on the stamp caught his eye.
Magnified, it revealed coordinates.
The painting was dusty and its hinges creaked as he pushed it aside. It took him a minute to recall the code.
He should probably stretch or something.
Ben needed rescuing. Again.
