I thought about Jeanette all through my lunch meeting in Detroit. And by lunch meeting I meant that Eddie and I stood around the table looking intimidating while Chaz ate and entertained his guests.

Maybe intimidating wasn't the right word.

Eddie is Chaz's gunman. His personal protection. There is nothing scary looking about Eddie except for maybe how shockingly bright red his hair and freckles are. He kept it short, but it still shone like a stop sign in a headlight and his goatee made a rusty stain across his naturally pale face. He was pretty thin, nothing much to look at, but he wore his gun holster on the outside of his pants and that's as menacing as some people needed to be to get their point across. Eddie always stands right next to Chaz. Even if Chaz is sitting, like he was at the moment, Eddie was always standing nearby, like an accessory, ready to pull the trigger. We didn't call him Fast Eddie, or any other kind of nickname, but make no mistake, Eddie was fast enough when he needed to be.

Gordon was positioned on the other side of the closed door, kind of keeping tabs on anyone coming in or out of the room. The guests didn't bring in any muscle with them, which was either ballsy or smart depending on how you wanted to look at it. Gordon had graying hair and a receding hairline. He looked like someone's damn grandpa. Like he had a golden retriever that fetched his paper for him every morning and he liked to fly fish in the country on the weekends. I don't know what the hell Gordon liked to do for fun, but I'd seen the guy drop a body without blinking, just because Chaz showed him the appropriate amount of dollars. Gordon was probably the scariest guy I had ever met, mostly because he was just so damn nice all the time. He was the same way with killing. Ask a person how's the weather and then blow out the back of their head. He was definitely a man to keep track of after my deals were done.

It was my job to keep an eye on everybody. To be quiet. To just watch. Chaz liked me because I kept my cool. I wasn't prone to emotional outbursts and I didn't interrupt or try to voice my opinion. All the qualities of a good underling. Also, qualities of a good spy, but Chaz didn't need to know that. The whole point of me going undercover in his operation was to find out why he was sweating my grandma's restaurant so bad. It was just an upscale Italian place. We loved it because it was ours, but why would a guy like Chaz care about it? He went after my family like the building was on an untapped cache of oil or something.

There had to be a reason, but I hadn't found it yet. The best I could do right now
