“How do you know it was Johnny?”

“I saw the lug. Adams was here after Yarde. We were up on the top platform of the escape when I spotted Johnny with another guy down on the waterfront. A cop spotted this other guy. Johnny threw an iron on him and shot him.”

“Have they got him?” Tux asked anxiously.

“Not yet, but they will. You know what Adams is like. He pulled a gun on Johnny and knicked him. I jogged his arm or he would have had him with his second.”

“I want Johnny,” Tux said. “Where did he go?”

Cutler grinned.

“You ain’t the only one. The place is swarming with cops. I didn’t know they had so many.”

“Where did he go?” Tux snarled.

“He’s holed up with Rose Little.”

“Who’s the hell’s she?”
