    Summary

    Everyone knew that Al Neri was loyal beyond reason. This was not out of personal interest in backing a man who could help him rise to power. Many men followed Michael because with luck he would one day be Godfather. Al followed because, to all intents and purposes, Michael Corleone was God.
    It would be years before this view changed, before the bodyguard grew up and, what’s more, grew a brain with which to actually think about Michael. In doing so, he discovered a host of new reasons to stay true.

    *Al Neri's perspective on events and the evolution of his feelings for his boss, from his first meeting with Michael in the novel to the final scene of the second film.*

    Summary

    March had his palm read once, years back, by a hack psychic in a gaudy tent at some old timey carnival Holly had begged to go to. She'd taken one look at his craggy hands – two fingers bandaged at the time - and told him, in no uncertain terms, that if he didn't slow down, boy, he was gonna hurt himself. He tipped her very badly.

    Suffice to say, he did not often have the appearance of a man in control of his own destiny.

    Summary

    Her dad and Mr. Healy are good guys. The Nice Guys. And together, the two of them make up one mostly responsible parent. That's what she tells Jessica, anyway, when Jessica's parents finally let her come over to their new house for a sleepover after they've gotten over the whole being thrown through a plate glass window by an assassin incident.

    "They should be boyfriends," Jessica says.

    Wait.

    "What?" Holly says, freezing in place as she feels the world reset around her.
