The clock was now ticking, and
Dwayne knew to not push Nik for an extension. After they had agreed on the
48-hour deadline, Nik had gone home. Dwayne stayed to find out more, if that
was possible, about who Damien Tyler was. What truly puzzled him at the moment
was the connection to the lawyer from Las Vegas. Why would a family law firm
attorney want a former mob hitman dead? At the moment, it made no sense.
Neither did Nik Friday. Dwayne had never met someone so aloof at solving
a crime.The captain had
told Dwayne to trust Nik and his instincts several times. The other cops had
mixed feelings on the man. He did not seem like he was academy-trained, more
like a reject from another department, maybe another state for that matter.
For the time being, Dwayne decided to go with his own gut. He’d solve
this even if it meant going over Nik’s head, hell even if it meant suspension
for doing just that. He had to make a mark in the department somewhere.
