Оглавление“So the other witness must be dead,” Cate said.
Liam nodded. “Yeah. I was told a little while ago.”
“Vishenko murdered her.” A flat, cold statement.
“Maybe,” he said. “There’s no proof of that. Not yet.”
“There may never be proof. But I know.” She tapped a hand against her breastbone. “I know it here. Just as I know he’s the one who tried to have me killed. He is ruthless. Amoral. An animal. He’ll do anything to prevent me from testifying.”
“But you’re going to testify anyway. Why?” he asked, curious to understand what drove her to take the risk when so many men had refused to flip on Vishenko in the past.
“Because your brother Alec and my cousin Angelina are right. He is evil, and he must be stopped. No matter the cost.” Her voice dropped to a whisper as if she were reciting an oft-repeated mantra, so that Liam had to strain to hear her next words. “‘I am only one, but I am one. I cannot do everything, but I can do something.’”
He recognized the quotation with a sense of shock. There was more to Cate than he knew.
