Nate dropped Liza off at her downtown hotel with strict orders to change into something decently formal and meet them outside Castleman in four hours. She saluted him before hopping out of the car.
"Yes, boss," she said as he sped off. She turned on her heel, bounding up the stairs. She stopped when she reached the turnstile doors. The hair on the back of her neck stood on end.
The valet looked at her questioningly. "You alright, miss?"
She jolted. She turned her head, pasting on a patented, disarming smile. "Fine, honey," Liza replied. "I never get used t' the city," she laughed a bit. "Feels like everybody's watchin' me,"
The valet nodded, offering a slight curl of his lips instead of a smile. "Know the feeling, miss." he gestured to the door. "Sorry for holding you up. Have a nice stay,"
She nodded her thanks. Liza entered the lobby, not seeing the homeless man on the other side of the street tuck an expensive camera into his raggedy bag and get into a waiting Mercedes in the alley.
