Not that it really mattered, Longarm told himself, because the people who had tried to kill him hadn't succeeded. He was alive, damn it, alive and kicking.
Longarm took another drag on the cheroot, which he hadn't dropped even while he was killing McGurk, and blew the smoke out in a perfect ring. Then he sat there next to the dead man and listened to the police whistles coming closer and watched the cool night breeze carry the smoke away.
