Chapter 7: Say It Again
The old president's office was behind the bar hall, a square room with a rolltop desk, a threadbare rug and a window over the frozen harbor.
Nobody had used it since Dutch moved the club's business to the long table.
I stood in its doorway on the third night after Marcel's visit with my hair down and my hand unwrapped, and Nik Lindqvist stood in front of me with a lamp in his fist.

"You say mine like you mean it, and I decide if I'm yours."
His whole face changed as he heard it.
"I can do that," Nik said.
"Can you?
"At the table you said you'd want something for the back room."
"I wanted dinner."
I stared at him.
"Pierogi," he said, and the grin broke through, rueful and real.
"I make them from my grandmother's card.
