      He heard Mike speaking with Gleason, thanking him for his concern for the city.

      An officer was at the main Gothic-arched doorway, keeping watch over who entered and exited. Craig nodded and headed out to the street, aware that Mike was with him.

      “Rat terrier,” Mike said.

      “Pardon?”

      Craig grinned. “Yesterday we dealt with an asshole—according to McBride—and today a rat terrier.”

      “Yeah, but at least you don’t have to pretend to be polite to an asshole!” Mike said.
