Chapter 20: Night Shift

I was dressed before the apprentice hung up.

Jeans. Work boots. Harness from the hook on the back of the closet door.

Anson was already out of bed, pulling a shirt over his head.

"You're going up," he said.

"You said you'd never ask me not to."

"I'm not asking." He found his car keys. "I'm driving."

I sent one line to the group chat from the passenger seat.

Gate. Now. Bring your hats.

Strahan Point was lit up on the black river.

Thirty-eight was blazing with work lights. I could hear the impact guns from the bridge, that hard chattering rattle, over and over.

My gang beat us there.

My partner in her orange hard hat. The old connector, in a sweatshirt and his bad knees. The operator, in slippers.

There was a padlock and a new chain on the gate.

Two of Hayden's security guards stood behind it with flashlights.

"Site's closed to the public," one of them said.

"It's open enough for them." I pointed up.

"They work here. You don't."

I pulled my union card out of my jacket on its lanyard and held it up to the fence.
