His boss?

Questions, there were a million questions. But Jack wasn’t feeling sick and tired anymore.

She was oddly invigorated. Maybe it hadn’t been her fault the Binkowskis died. Maybe this was something big, some Outfit operation, that she’d stumbled onto accidentally.

Benedict came in, towing Frank the doorman.

Jack made her face look hard, shrugging on the role of tough cop.

Time to get a few of those million questions answered.

Marty Martelli bit into his knuckles hard enough to draw blood. He didn’t seem to notice, until it dripped down his shirt and tickled his flabby neck.

“Get me a freaking napkin,” he said to Terco. Terco hurried off to find one. He was the only one of Marty’s elite entourage still there at Spill. Matisse was at Tequila’s, and Slake had gone to join him and get the sister. Leman had taken a cab back home and called from there, stoned on painkillers after pulling a Rambo and taking the bullet out of his shoulder himself. And Tequila…

No one had seen Tequila since he’d left Spill.

The phone rang, and Marty almost toppled over in his eagerness to answer it.

“Yeah?”

“It’s Fonti. What the hell you trying to do, Marty? Get me nailed?”

“What do you mean?”

“I send ten guys over to Lake Shore Drive to take care of your little problem, and the place is swarming with pigs.”

Marty’s hopes sank. If Tequila was in custody, it would be a lot harder to get to him.

“They got him?”

“Not from what I hear. Seems your friend jumped off the thirtieth floor with a parachute. No one’s found him yet.”

“Dead?”

“I don’t think so. The cops found the chute, but no Tequila.”

Marty’s thoughts seemed to mix around in his head and run out his ears.
