The Second Chance (Inferno Falls Book Three) - Plot & Excerpts
He’s an agent, and he’s in town doing something I’d heard rumors of but didn’t entirely believe: trying to coax Jimmy Cannon out of retirement. Apparently, it’s an errand he’s been on for years, with little luck. “But the casting directors won’t stop demanding that I try,” he tells me with a wan smile. Everything Ebon says is sharp but laced with melancholy. It’s like he’s wearing a cloak, but it’s a sinister cloak that’s slowly killing him. I don’t have the guts to ask this man I’ve just met what’s wrong, but I’m sure he’s covered it all with Mason — so if I’m supercurious, maybe Brandon can tell me. If it matters. Which, in the big picture, it doesn’t. Ebon listens to everything I say. He’s so quiet that I almost think I’m boring him, but his serious eyes are intense, seeming to take it all in. Several times, I wonder why I’m doing any of this. But there’s something about Mr. Ebon Shale. I can tell he’s a man who makes connections, a man people trust.
