Chapter 18

"I wept not, so to stone within I grew."

-Dante Alighieri

Someone took my picture when I was passing through the yellow tape. There was a couple more camera flashes as I started walking along a canal with Zach. He was calm, but slightly apprehensive that I showed up without a warning. The body was lying several meters down, just by the cycling path. The forensic technicians were using black lights and ethanol to check the space for DNA. Most of the time demons died in hell, and I was surprised that Watchers hadn't found this poor demon first.

"How did you know to come here tonight, Flower?" Zach asked, when we stopped on the edge and he turned to look at me.
