Part 2, Chapter 42 Summary: “Bird Rock, California”

Reece heads back to Ben’s cabin, thrilled with the success of Boykin’s murder. Ben provides information about the gang members who killed Lauren and Lucy: They are a part of the Cártel de Jalisco Nueva Generación (CJNG), a Mexican organized crime group. Ben provides him with the location of the gang’s clubhouse and some background information on the neighborhood before leaving.

Reece realizes that taking out the gang members is going to take some planning, so he focuses on killing someone domestically instead.

Part 2, Chapter 43 Summary: “Palm Springs, California”

When Agnon enters his hotel room during a work conference, he is suddenly attacked from behind and put in a chokehold, leading him to pass out.

When he wakes up, he is blindfolded, naked, and gagged. He realizes that Reece has found him, causing him to throw up in fear. Reece drags him to the bathroom, where he has prepared a makeshift waterboarding station in the bathtub. Agnon complies. Reece shoves Agnon’s head under the faucet as water floods his sinuses. Reese utilizes waterboarding tips that he learned from the CIA after 9/11 to increase the efficacy of his torture.

After several waterboarding sessions, Agnon is ready to talk. Reece starts a recorder and asks Agnon some questions. Reece knows that going for some lower-level people in the chain of command can reveal more information about the Project and lead him to more people on his list.
