That's what I want to talk to you about." Sadie sighed. "You're not going to try to talk me out of seeingh him too, are you? I've had Tommy at me already. It's not that he'd got anything against Kevin, you know that. But it's peace at any price for him!" "Peace would be nice," aid Brede. "Sometimes the price is too high." "Sometimes the price is high the other way too." Sadie glanced at Brede and frowned. "We'll got to a little cafe further along the main street. No one'll bother us there." The cafe was empty.
