Chapter One
August
New York City
Amused to be here again, Vincent Spocatti stepped out of the
limousine, cut through the crowds on
Fifth
Avenue
and moved into the absolute quiet of the Manhattan Enterprises
Building.
It had been three years
since he’d been in this towering monster of glass and steel, and he hadn’t
missed any of it.
He moved across the lobby, held up an ID for the guard
sitting at the front desk and was asked to move to the hallway at his
left.
Spocatti did and approached a
private elevator, which opened for him when he neared it.
Fancy
, he thought.
He was about to meet the man who was the executor of Louis
Ryan’s will and he couldn’t help wondering exactly how many Redmans he’d be
asked to knock off this time.
He assumed it would be those who hadn’t died the first time
around.
Maybe more.
Maybe less.
Even in death, who knew with Ryan?
Maybe there were others he wanted
Spocatti to take down.
One can hope.
The elevator stopped on the forty-ninth floor.
The doors whisked open and Spocatti was
faced with a younger man who resembled him—just under six feet, muscular,
dark hair, a handsome face drained of emotion.
“This way, Mr. Spocatti.”
