Summary
One month after Marc Spector crawled inside an Egyptian temple and Jake Lockley walked out, Jake tracks down Layla El-Faouly and offers to help her take revenge and avenge her father. Jake is sure this is how flirting works. Pretty sure.
It's easy to fall in love with a badass protector of the night. It's a little harder to fall in love with Jake Lockley, your everyday assassin. And there's no way Layla El-Faouly could ever fall in love with Marc and Steven. There's no way they will ever meet.
Three acts on the subject of heartbreak.

Summary
“Listen. When you showed up at our house, I think… I think something happened. I don’t know what. It doesn’t make any sense to me, but I’m hoping that if you come out to my car to see it, it'll make sense to you. Two minutes of your time, and then the briefcase is yours.”
"Can't you just tell us what it is?" Viktor asked.
"I need to show you."
"You really don't," said Allison.
"I do!"
He kept his voice low, but there was real urgency in it. His jaw was clenched tight. Even over the ambient sounds of a busy diner, Allison could hear him grinding his teeth, and she didn’t think it was out of anger.
Something had Marcus spooked.
Viktor sighed softly.
“Okay,” he said. “Fine. Let’s go to the alley and look at secret stuff together, I guess.”
“If this guy pulls out his junk,” Allison hissed in Viktor’s ear as they trailed after Marcus outside, “I am rumoring him to slam it in his car door.”

“The Aboleth got you.”
