WHEN OVER A week passed without an attack on our home, I considered the matter handled. It hadn’t been pretty, but Eli and I had taken care of it. Without doing any physical damage, we had scared the crap out of Will Nygard. His father had told Viv the boy was traumatized. If that was true, I felt badly, but I had my doubts. And at least he’d think twice before he came anywhere near our house again. Soon, word would spread to all his horrible little friends.

When the police had shown up at our door, I’d been rattled. It was bullshit that the cops had allowed those boys to harass us for so long, but when we took matters into our own hands, they were all over it. Apparently, Jack Nygard had a friend on the force. Luckily, I’d been able to talk my way out of it, and Eli had backed me up. It was over. We could relax.

Except, I couldn’t.

“I don’t care why they did it,” Viv said, “as long as it’s stopped.”

But Viv didn’t know that I’d found Finn, the instigator of the attacks, online. She didn’t know that this Finn kid went on camping trips with my colleague Roger. The same colleague who’d gotten me embroiled in this mess with Chanel. The more I’d thought about it, the more I’d realized: it could not be a coincidence. Roger’s involvement was key. He was out to get me. And I was going to find out why.

Luckily, he was in the office that day, talking at volume eleven into his wireless earbuds. “You don’t need to thank me,” he was saying, as I walked up to his cubicle. “It’s my job to make sure you’re ecstatic.”

“Hey, buddy,” I said, when he’d disconnected. “Buy you a burger?”

It wasn’t unusual for us to grab a bite together. At least, it hadn’t been prior to his most recent bachelor party. But ever since Roger had returned from his honeymoon on Maui, I’d been aloof… toward him, Leo, and the other agents who’d attended the debauched golf retreat. Now I had to be charming, unassuming, and pretend I hadn’t been pissed off at him. When we were alone at lunch, I would convince him to open up to me. I would get him to tell me everything he knew about Finn Dorsey.

Roger’s eyebrows knit together, for just a second; then he looked at the $14,000 watch on his wrist. “Why not?”
