Quotation

Hendricks’s business model was…unconventional. When someone was marked for death, Hendricks would make sure that person’s would-be killer wound up in the ground instead—so long as the intended victim paid up, that is. === “Wait—you’re the guy who’s been whacking our hitters?” === “You don’t understand. If I talk, they’ll kill my family.” “What do you care? Half your family wants you dead.” “That doesn’t mean that I don’t love them,” he said. === When Engelmann came after Hendricks, he did so by targeting the only two people in the world that Hendricks cared about: his partner, Lester, and his former fiancée, Evie. === Sal hoped that Izzie never got any better at lying than she was today, midway through her seventh year. But he knew better. Lying was in her DNA. Her hateful bitch of a mother did it for sport. Sal did it for a living.
