We were in and out of the room in under an hour. There had been a transmitter indeed, implanted under the skin of the instep of my right foot. It was deeper than I expected, barely felt. Its head was smaller than a lentil, attached to an inch-long hair-thin wire. One would think my body would have rejected such a thing.
It didn"t.
Logan and I separated after we left the hotel. I took a cab to a mall where I spent the remainder of Logan"s money without a pang of regret. He took the transmitter to be disposed of, told me he had some stuff he had to see to, like finding a car, calls to make, and some money he wanted to be wired to him. All in all, I had a couple of hours to kill shopping before I was to call him on a number he gave me and made me memorize.
I went to Arden Fair Mall in Arde
