Chester strode into the Sit N’ Dine, half an hour after he had agreed to meet at the diner. Marcus looked up and forced a smile onto his face, to match his friend’s lopsided grin and mask his irritation. Ordinarily, he felt cheered at the sight of his buddy.

Marcus watched the animal control truck to pull off, with Travis drugged and unconscious in the back, chuckling to himself. Let’s see the sonofabitch get out of that one.

The best way to figure out what makes a person tick is to get a look at what they were like behind closed doors. He owed part of his success […]
Marcus was in his office typing up a surveillance report for another client, when the phone rang. He answered without taking his eyes off of his computer screen.
