Michael didn’t say anything when she was done with her story. She didn’t tell him everything—he didn’t need to know, for example, that she’d been sleeping with Colton or that it was the last night she’d seen her partner before he was killed. But she told him about finding Sunny dead, chasing Chen, wanting to kill him but not being able to shoot him in the back.

“You did the right thing,” he said.

“Did I? All this would have been over eight months ago if I had killed him.”

“Shooting a man in the back as he’s fleeing—”

“Fleeing? Running because he killed a woman in cold blood.”

“You’re lucky the knife didn’t kill you.”

“Yeah. And for my trouble, the FBI almost let Chen walk because I apparently violated his civil rights. He claimed I targeted him because he was a Chinese American, and Bryce Thornton was happy to believe it.” She paused. “Sorry. I guess I’m still angry about the whole thing.”

“I would be, too.”

“And there he is,” Kara said, watching Lee’s patrol vehicle drive through the gate. They were sitting across the street. She would wait until he came out in his personal car—a late model Acura—and then she’d call him. “This is going to be fun.”

Michael groaned. “Really, Kara, you and I need to discuss your definition of fun.”
