    Summary

    “Did someone…die?” Eddie asked.

    Jimmy, carrying a very tiny box and placing it next to a tray of homemade brownies, paused mid-step. “Did you not know, Your Grace?”

    Eddie’s dread expanded exponentially. “Know what, exactly?”

    “What day it is?” When Eddie didn’t answer, Jimmy actually paled. It was tough to see under all the ultraviolets, but his eyes suddenly seemed huge and his skin had a touch of grey. “Oh, God. I’m so sorry, Your Grace. You truly don’t know.”

    “Know what, Jimmy?” The sinking feeling in Eddie’s gut told him what Jimmy wouldn’t say. He just wanted to be wrong. He hoped, fervently, that he was wrong. “What day is it, Jimmy?”

    He heard the click of a bootheel behind him. “It’s my fucking birthday,” Susie growled.
