"Thanks. But I got a good reward."
"Oh?"
Looking back at Belluso's, Mac said, "Best cannoli in New York."
"Damn right."
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
KEITH R.A. DECANDIDO IS a white male in his late thirties, approximately 190 pounds. He was last seen in the wilds of the Bronx, New York, though he is often sighted in other locales. Usually he is armed with a laptop computer, which some have classified as a deadly weapon. Through the use of this laptop, he has inflicted novels, short stories, comic books, nonfiction, eBooks, and anthologies on an unsuspecting reading public. Most of these are set in the milieus of television shows, movies, video games, and comic books, among them Star Trek (in all its incarnations), Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Command and Conquer, Doctor Who, Marvel Comics, Resident Evil, StarCraft, Supernatural, World of War-craft, and many more. He has also perpetrated the acclaimed high-fantasy police procedural Dragon Precinct, as well as several short stories in the same universe. If you see DeCandido, do not approach him, but call for backup immediately. He is often seen in the company of a woman tentatively identified as his fiancйe and two cats who go under the street names of "Aoki" and "Marcus."
