Danny.
Staring at herself in the mirror one last time Danny reached down and smoothed out an imaginary crease from her skirt. Today was her first day at The Barn as Detective Sofer, and she was nervous and excited in equal measure.
Her career, her life was back on track. Lem's statement had cleared her of any wrong doing in Armadillo's death, that black mark had been expunged from her file. She still couldn't believe Vic had let her take the fall for that. She'd suspected, but she'd always hoped that she was wrong, that he didn't know. After what they'd shared, she'd thought she'd known him. She'd been so wrong.
The thought that they'd been intimate, that she'd slept with a murderer made her shudder.
She'd felt sorry for Vic when Terry had died. She'd tried to convince him it wasn't his fault. She wondered if he'd been laughing at her.
That was the past, and Danny was determined to concentrate on the future. She was going to do the best job she could. She was going to be a damn good detective. It was down to cops like her to wipe away the stain the Strike Team had left.
