Dominic and DeWitt in “True Believer”

I don't like it.

Good. It's your job not to like it, Mr. Dominic. But Senator Boxbaum is more than just a valued client, he's a well placed asset. Denying his request would have a steeper downside than acquiescing.

It's not the job. I'm confident Langton can handle the ATF. It's Echo. Her field response has been wildly erratic lately.

She's demonstrated a talent for adaptability, which is precisely what's required in this instance.

They shouldn't be adaptable, they should be predictable. If Alpha didn't teach us that much?

You don't like Echo, do you Mr. Dominic?

It's not that I don't like her. It's sometimes I worry you do.

Your objections have been noted. Thank you, Mr. Dominic.
