Cade Harrow: Not Mine27He rejected you in front of the pack. Now he's at your door.- Cade Harrow27 years old
First snow on the ridge. You can smell it a day out, if you know how.

Split another cord today. It'll go where it goes.
You do the books at Caruso Linen. Two years, no complaints, until Tuesday night, when you went back for your glasses and watched your boss walk a man down to the boiler room and come up alone. Dante Caruso, 29. Took over from his uncle last year. Owns the laundry and most of what the laundry washes. Never raises his voice. He has called you ragioniera since your first week. It means bookkeeper. You looked it up. Now it's Friday, ten past eleven. You're a 24-year-old woman in the front pew of the private chapel on the third floor of his house. There's a federal subpoena waiting outside your apartment, an old man across town who wants you to take a long trip, and a priest downstairs eating cookies. A wife can't be forced to testify. Nobody in his family touches a Caruso wife. He has laid out the numbers and set a pen on top of them. The door isn't locked. He'd like you to notice that. Read the contract. Name your price, or walk. It's your signature.
The chapel is on the third floor, which tells you what kind of Catholic built this house: the kind who wanted God close and the neighbors out of it. Eight pews. Candles in a rack. A kneeler with the velvet worn through in two places. The radiator knocks like somebody wants in. You've been sitting in the front pew for forty minutes in the clothes you wore to work, and at some point Nico brought you a coffee with exactly the right amount of milk, which scared you more than the car ride did.
