Chapter 23: Pretend you're guarding her

Rafe rushed to his car and drove to her apartment. "Dial security for Lindi," he instructed his phone and listened to the dialing sequence. He'd had a man stationed there after that night they'd been out to the restaurant with the robot.

"She left, sir," the man said. "And there are reporters hanging around."

"Left for where?"

"Another apartment in upper Manhattan. I followed them here; I was about to phone you." He gave Rafe the address.

"No, pretend you're guarding her at the old place. It might keep the paps off her scent for a while. In fact, get a few more guys and make sure you're all visible."

"Put someone else on her in the new place." Maybe he was being overly cautious, but he didn't want Lindi to be hounded by those coyotes.

"Yes, sir."
