The Enraged (A Jonathan Quinn Novel)

A few quiet minutes passed before his phone rang. Not wanting to wake Orlando, he waited until it stopped before he pulled out his cell. He could see the call had come from Helen Cho. As with the last five times she’d called, she’d left no message. There was no need, of course. He knew what she wanted, because the first time she’d called, four days earlier, she had left a message. It was still sitting in his inbox. He played it again.
“Quinn, Helen Cho. I know you’re kind of tied up at the moment, but when you get back to San Francisco, I’d like you to stop in and see me.” She paused. “I’m starting up a new agency. Something small and specialized, and I’m looking for someone to set it up and run things. After seeing how you handled the Morten situation, I think you’d be the perfect candidate. Anyway, whether you’re interested or not, come see me.”
He laughed to himself as he hung up.
“What?” Orlando asked, riding a short wave into consciousness.
“Nothing.”
“You sure?”
His hesitation lasted but a split second. “Absolutely.”
