If you say the wrong thing to the wrong person, don’t expect to see tomorrow. Keep your mouth shut, and maybe you walk away from this." Sam decided that keeping his mouth shut was a good idea; aggravating the inspector would only make things harder. His silence seemed to mollify Burnside. The detective called Dellett over to watch the runners and went to have a conference with Rogers. Dellett leaned against the west doorway and ignored Sam and Hart. He knew they weren’t going anywhere as long as he was in their way.
