Quotation

In less than eight more years he could retire on half pay. He’d be forty-five. Then what? Corporate security. He had taken prelaw at Wayne, kept putting off going to law school and now he didn’t care much for lawyers. What he knew was how to investigate a homicide, how to peel open a case and find out who was who, the ones lying to him and the ones telling him things he could use, until finally meeting the suspect and knowing he had him by the nuts, this arrogant guy who could not believe you’d ever take him down, and you present the evidence and watch his face, watch his fxck-you expression fade looking at twenty-five to life or life without parole. There was nothing like that moment. === ‘Those two go around like they’re wearing signs.’ === This deal was now way out of hand; he wasn’t shooting anybody ‘less they got paid. === “You gonna live here?” “Gonna sell it and move to Puerto Rico, where you know what the weather’s gonna be every day you get out of bed.”
