Bullet River (The Garbage Collector 2)
“But in my business, you have to be able to shut off emotions like you’re blowing out a candle. So that’s what I did. I didn’t feel good about it. In fact, I felt like a piece of shit.

Next, I left the apartment and did a perimeter walk of the property. It was my job now, after all. But I really did it because it gave me time to think. And because I also couldn’t help but wonder if there were any other surprises nearby. The stairs from the pool led up to the second-floor lanai. I checked all of the sliding doors and the little pass-through to the kitchen. Everything was locked up tight.
