The woman was tall, nearly as tall as Puerto Rican Andy, which was saying something.

“Let him go,” Zig demanded.

“I don’t think you’re hearing me, Mr. Zigarowski,” Reagan said. “The knife . . .”

“I don’t think you’re hearing me,” Zig said, hand still in his pocket. “Let him—”

“I’m slitting his throat now,” Reagan said, starting to tug.

“WaitWaitWait! No . . . my knife. Here . . . here . . .” Zig said, pulling out his knife and tossing it on the floor, where it cartwheeled across the carpet.

That was all they needed.

In a blur, something moved behind Zig—someone who was hiding by the old ice cream drive-through window that had been reframed into an alcove with a hanging American flag.

Before Zig knew what hit him, a tree-trunk-sized arm wrapped around his neck, squeezing him in a brutal choke hold.

Stupid old man, Zig thought, cursing himself for not seeing it coming. The attack on Andy—it was just a distraction.

Zig tried to turn, tried to fight. He didn’t have a chance. His attacker was massive, a huge Irish redhead as big as a building—moving with a speed his size shouldn’t allow. He hit Zig like a tornado, hooking his arm around Zig’s throat and pinching Zig’s neck in the crook of his elbow.

Zig gasped for air. Nothing came. He was choking, his face bright red, barely able to breathe.

“Let’s try this again, Mr. Zigarowski. I’m trying to save you from an awful day,” the redheaded woman repeated. “It’s a rather simple question. Tell us what you know about Black House.”
