What the hell just happened?
The words exploded out of me as I stared at Rowan in complete shock, both of us frozen on the cliff overlooking the road where the accident was supposed to happen.
Except the car had not reached that point yet.
The loud thunderous crash we just heard came from at least a mile back, way too early in the route, nowhere near where Rowan had carefully set up the mechanical failure to trigger.
This was wrong, all wrong.
Rowan looked at Nia who looked at Cole and we all stood there for a split second trying to process what we had just heard echoing through the valley below us. The sound had been massive, metal crunching and glass shattering, so loud it carried all the way up to where we were waiting.
"That was not supposed to happen," Rowan stated, his voice tight with panic that I could hear underneath his usual composure. "Something must have gone terribly wrong."
