“Now keep good watch!” and they kissed her.
She heard the dead man say-
Look for me by moonlight;
Watch for me by moonlight;
I’ll come to thee by moonlight, though hell should bar the way!

Riley has only ten minutes with the nameless dead girl. At the end of ten minutes, her pimp — named Whip — comes over and jerks her away. Whip makes Riley pay in advance, because of the lethargy that overcomes him afterward. It’s like the water of Lethe, temporarily: relief that he’s come to need more and more.

Chicago sucks the life out of you in February. It’s so fuckin’ cold that your bones freeze and then it feels like you’re held together with kelvinated wires. And my poor car, probably built to purr around the curves of Highway 1 in sunny California, can’t hack it. The heater takes hours to warm up, and even then it only blows a very thin stream of semi-heated air.

Which is why I’m cussin’ up a storm as I shiver and lean on the horn outside the Canadian Consulate. Fuck’s sake! Fraser said to be here at six a.m., and Fraser is never late, but here it is, six-ten, and who is still sitting outside, freezing his ass to the seat of his GTO? Yours truly, that’s who.
