“Holy fuck, do you know who that was?” Rene’s voice shook slightly, betraying a nervous excitement that her partner had never heard before concerning a civilian.

“What’s going on with you? I’ve never seen you act like this over a criminal, Rene. That wasn’t the first time you’ve seen Juanita Ramirez.”

“Not her, the other one. She’s not a criminal, David. That was Valentina Vargas. She’s an actress. And the Ramirez boys are supposedly going straight, you know. That right there, the fact that they have Valentina Vargas working for them adds credence to the rumors. Shit, maybe they’re really serious about going legit.”

Turner’s eyes widened and his shoulders shook with laughter. “What. The. Fuck. I can’t believe it, you’re a fangirl.” He wasn’t used to his partner ever taking the side of any criminal organization and yet here she was, sticking up for the Ramirez family because of her love for a TV show.

“Look,” Rene said, “ever since you started talking about retiring you’ve been on a rampage against Glazov, Bratva and the Colombians. What, do you want one last bust before you ride off into the sunset? If this is some kind of ego trip for you, that’s how people get killed and I don’t want any part of it.”

“I’m not on an ego trip, Rene, I just don’t believe anyone involved in organized crime can ever truly go straight. Corruption hangs onto you like static cling. As far as Valentina Vargas is concerned, I know how the Ramirez men operate and I can promise you that Victor Ramirez probably held her captive and made her go to work for them. One thing’s for sure: she’ll never escape the stranglehold that family has on her—never.”

She was only halfway listening to him, she was utterly distracted by the fact that Valentina Vargas was living in Louisville. Rene was typically the epitome of professional objectivity and decorum, but this encounter had really hit a nerve. No way was she going to let her partner cause Valentina any problems that weren’t absolutely necessary. After all, that would mean not being able to watch her story every day and she was too addicted to it to ever let that shit happen.

She needed to figure out what her partner was up to and that might not be so easy. Agent Turner could be a closed book when he wanted to be.
