Chapter 9

“SPARSE” didn"t begin to cover the place Nikita used as a base for

operations. A one-room apartment chosen for anonymity as much as

the one narrow bed and the walls that accommodated his way of

planning a mission. What he needed he carried in one bag, and it was

back to a diet of protein shakes and take-away.

Sometimes he wondered what it might be like to have more than

that—but not on his salary, not with his job. Smashing up a criminal"s

place was part driven by envy, he figured, but he didn"t investigate that

emotion further. No consequence.

There was an exceedingly cheap gym around the corner. They

issued “day passes” and were open 24/7. The types working out there

were bouncers, the jobless and unemployed, social security cases, and

students. He fit right in with the bouncers.

Chris Gibson, at least, had given his game away, and Nikita felt

he was relaxing somewhat and far too much for his own good. Naming

the hotel had not been a smart move. It could have been a ruse, but no,

it had come out too easily. A true slip of the tongue.

If Chris had come from Switzerland, it was likely he"d been

briefed by GORGON. Now it seemed likely that GORGON had killed

Andrei (why, he didn"t know) or Chris had been moonlighting as a

hired hand for the Russian mobsters. Who wouldn"t jump at the chance

to pick up five million for a little side assignment?

But the fact that Chris was now here—on GORGON"s orders,

most likely—could mean that Chris was taking an interest in Shkadov.

That was why he had been on the scene when Zaitsev had lost his head.
