"So if no one else knows," she said slowly, "then how did Voss get close enough to Vito?"
He realised then that all he had to give her to piece it together was Winn Kane's visit. The police had questioned the Kanes. That had been the first visible crack. Vee knew the Kanes had helped Valentina. She knew enough already. One more thread and she would pull the whole ugly thing into the light.
Would she still be this accepting when she realised the sister she had given her life for was the one trying to remove him from the list she had just outlined?
But what happened when one person on that list threatened another? What happened when love stood on both sides of the knife?
If Veronica knew and chose to protect Val, it would put her at the mercy of the famiglia. She had earned their respect so far. But this? Protecting a traitor because she was her sister?
No.
That was not a burden he would place on her. Maybe he was a coward.
Fine.
