Rudge raised his hands in irritation. “Jesus, you gotta let that shit go. Roggetti was a cop, one of New York’s Finest. He knew the risks—we all know the risks, but we know the odds are in our favor, know what I’m saying? And sometimes it don’t work out, and we lose. But we do what we do because we believe in it. Roggetti died doing what he believed in. He protected and served, right? He’s a hero. And you killed the man who killed him, right? You tracked down that muthafucka and flat-out killed him dead. You did what had to be done for Roggetti, so in my book you’re a hero too.”

He shook his head. “You can’t go around carrying this shit, Jenner—I saw you tense up when the funeral came on. Sooner or later you have to tell yourself: ‘It’s not my fault’…”

Jenner said, “Look, I watched Joey die in front of me, watched him bleed out maybe four feet from where I was lying. That man beat me down, beat me so bad I couldn’t move—all I could do was watch my friend die. Joey died in my building, trying to help my girlfriend. So don’t tell me whose fault it is or…”

“Dr. Jenner?” He turned to see Anders right behind him. “You and I need to have a little talk.”
