Chapter 13: Birch Point

Birch Point was a long house of cedar and glass at the end of a snowy road, and every window in it was lit.

Linus stood in the front hall in a borrowed blazer that was one size too big.

Mattias stood beside him in a navy suit, with his sling folded away in a pocket and his jaw set.

"You know it," Linus murmured. "You said it three times in the car."

"I know it by ear," Mattias said.

"The card is the same eleven lines."

"The card is whatever he wants it to be," Mattias said.

Dinner was for forty, at one long table under a chandelier.

Trustees in dark suits.

Wives in pearls.

A banker with a bolo tie asked Linus where he was from.

When Linus said the Iron Range, the banker repeated it slowly, as a joke.

Linus sat three seats down from Mattias, between a donor and a dean, and ate his salmon without tasting it.
