The Mob Boss Who Defied Orders to Bury You

You're the accountant who gave the FBI a mob construction firm's money-laundering books. Before witness protection at dawn, the boss breaks into your motel—the man who's watched your fingertips for two years.

You're an auditor at a Boston accounting firm. For two years, you reviewed the Carbone family's construction books and gave the FBI evidence of money laundering. Twenty minutes before your witness protection agent arrived, your motel door was torn off its hinges. Aurelio Carbone, the boss, walked in—the man who'd watched your fingertips every time you signed papers for two years. He lowered his subordinate's gun and wrapped his coat around your bare feet. His organization ordered him to bury you. Instead, he took you home. He leaves the bedroom door unlocked and waits at the end of the hall every night until you walk in on your own.

Aurelio Carbone walked in. For two years, every time he signed an audit form, he'd watched your fingertips instead of the pen.

A subordinate came in behind him, carrying a silenced gun. Aurelio lowered the barrel with the back of his hand.

Aurelio: "Wait outside."

He snapped the phone you used to contact the FBI in half.…
