Chapter 21: The Log
"Sit," my father said.
His voice was a rasp, and it carried to the back of the hall.
Nobody sat.
Mariano turned at last, with his hand pressed to his heart and tears already standing in his eyes.
"Uncle," he said. "A miracle. God be thanked."
"God has had very little to do with it," said Vittorio. "Raffi."
I slipped the white ribbon off my wrists.
It had never been tied properly.
I walked into the gap of white tablecloth between the two families, with my father's chair behind me and a hundred men watching, and I laid a folded sheet of paper on the cloth.
"This is the alarm log from the dinner," I said. "I've read it often enough."
"Raffi, cara..." Mariano began.
"Eight fifty-two, the rear service door, the keypad. Zero six one four."
The old capo with the cane lifted his head.
"It's my mother's birthday," I said. "Whoever used it was told."
"I knew it," Mariano said. "And so did you, sweetheart. Careful."
"I was under a table with a Cortese hand on my head."
A few of the Cortese men laughed under their breath.
