Jack had come to the Shrinking Violet to check on Jonah. After the earthquake, he’d been worried about quite a few people, and he was making his rounds through the city to see them after work. The strip club seemed to have gotten out of the event unscathed, and it was quite crowded with people who were desperate for a way to forgot what happened.
He leaned over the bar, looking back and forth and not seeing the witch. As he lowered back onto his feet, he spotted a young woman he’d seen the last couple times he’d come in here. Her name was . . . Carmel or something. He gave her a small wave. “Hey! I’m Jack . . . have you seen Jonah? Is she here?”
