Chapter 32

• The red and blue lights flitted around the packed street entrance and the music was loud enough to be heard from a block or two away. He felt the bass through his rubber-soled shoes.
• Nico had only been to this club a handful of times, mostly because Sergei coerced him into it after a long stakeout, so they can both get laid. He doesn't enjoy it, because he knows that the place has shady deals surrounding it, which is exactly why he's here now.
• The place could be worse, though. The bartenders are prompt, and the liquor isn't bad. The dance floor is always packed, just like the back booths. The back room is open for those who know what they need, and who they need to meet to make it happen. That's where Nico was headed.
