I say, “What does that mean to you, exactly?”

She says, “It means I’ll do anything for you.”

“Anything?”

“Just name it.”

“Would you cut your tits off?” I say.

“What?”

“I probably could have put that a little more delicately,” I say. “Tell you what. We’ll discuss it later.”

We don’t have much time. Callie and I explain what we need her to do. We rehearse it a couple of times. I’m right: Gwen’s a natural.

I ask if she’ll be okay with Callie while I’m gone, and explain I’ll be back as soon as the police leave.

Callie makes her very nervous, but Gwen’s been around dangerous people all her life. I’m not worried about Gwen and Callie spending time together until I start to walk out the front door. That’s when I hear Gwen say, “You killed both bodyguards. Then you killed Lucky and Maddie without batting an eye!”

Callie says, “So?”

“Could you kill Carmine Porrello?”

I hesitate by the door long enough to hear Callie say, “Of course.”

And hear Gwen say, “Oh, oh, oh my God!”

I hesitate a moment. They’re in the next room. I really shouldn’t be eavesdropping.

Gwen says, “Could you kill Donovan Creed?”

Callie says, “For the sake of argument, let’s say I can.”

“Oh, oh, oh, oh, OH, OH, OH MY GOD!  OH…OH MY…GOD!!!”

“I want that device tomorrow!” I yell.

“Get lost!” Callie yells.

I sigh.
