It

The
mohicans
abandoned
their
attempts
to
paw
me
and
the
three
of
us
rode
up
four
floors
in
silence
broken
only
by
the
creak
of
the
ancient
elevator
.
Ortega
’
s
office
had
one
of
the
stained
glass
windows
,
or
more
precisely
the
bottom
half
of
one
,
before
it
was
bisected
horizontally
by
the
ceiling
.
Presumably
the
remainder
rose
missile
-
like
from
the
floor
of
the
office
above
.
I
began
to
see
some
evidence
for
the
original
building
having
been
converted
to
its
present
use
.
The
other
walls
of
the
office
were
environment
-
formatted
with
a
tropical
sunset
over
water
and
islands
.
The
combination
of
stained
glass
and
sunset
meant
that
the
office
was
filled
with
a
soft
orange
light
in
which
you
could
see
the
drifting
of
dust
motes
.
The
lieutenant
was
seated
behind
a
heavy
wooden
desk
as
if
caged
there
.
Chin
propped
on
one
cupped
hand
,
one
shin
and
knee
pressed
hard
against
the
edge
of
the
desk
,
she
was
brooding
over
the
scrolldown
of
an
antique
laptop
when
we
came
through
the
door
.
Aside
from
the
machine
,
the
only
items
on
the
desktop
were
a
battered
-
looking
heavy
-
calibre
Smith
&
Wesson
and
a
plastic
cup
of
coffee
,
heating
tab
still
unpulled
.
She
dismissed
the
mohicans
with
a
nod
.
"
Sit
down
,
Kovacs
.
"
I
glanced
around
,
saw
a
frame
chair
under
the
window
and
hooked
it
up
to
the
desk
.
The
late
afternoon
light
in
the
office
was
disorientating
.
"
You
work
the
night
shift
?
"
Her
eyes
flared
.
"
What
kind
of
crack
is
that
?
"
"
Hey
,
nothing
.
"
I
held
up
my
hands
and
gestured
at
the
low
light
.
"
I
just
thought
you
might
have
cycled
the
walls
for
it
.
You
know
it
’
s
ten
o
’
clock
in
the
morning
outside
.
"
"
Oh
,
that
.
"
Ortega
grunted
and
her
eyes
swivelled
back
down
to
the
screen
display
.
It
was
hard
to
tell
in
the
tropical
sunset
,
but
I
thought
they
might
be
grey
/
green
,
like
the
sea
around
the
maelstrom
.
"
It
’
s
out
of
synch
.
The
department
got
it
cheap
from
some
place
in
El
Paso
Juarez
.
Jams
up
completely
sometimes
.
