"I'm debating that." After everything that went down Booker felt gun shy. He didn't hang around after something went wrong or the work was finished. In and out. "I doubt we took care of your problem last night. Whoever you've been working with is done working with you."

And hanging around Chicago doing work for Marcus could get him tangled up in all of it as well. That would not help Booker stay under the radar. It wouldn't help meeting with a cop on a regular basis either.

Another immortal, though, was hard to walk away from. Booker felt the same sort of longing for someone to talk about this bullshit with. He had someone who understood. "And do you really want to follow this incident up with another violent murder? The city will not be happy."
