Vance looked at Makie and shook his head in disbelief. “He wants me to do what?”
“Take over as a team leader.”
“The Old Man’s out of his f*****g mind. I’m not a people person and I’m for damned straight not leadership material. I’m a loner Makie, always have been always will be. It’s what I do best.”
“Apparently he disagrees. You’re to report to his office first thing tomorrow morning.”
“Just like that. What about the Bureau?”
“They’ve been notified, the ones who need to know. As far as anyone else there is concerned, you’re just off on an undisclosed undercover assignment as always.”
Vance scrubbed a hand over his face. “And what if I decide to say no?”
“Then you say no, but hear him out first. He’s not going to tie you down to a desk, that would be stupid and he’s far from that.”
