“How can you not feel sorry for him, as a human being?” Kit asked.

“Kit, we’re trained to be objective on the job.”

“I read his file.”

Sam went still. She needed to know what Kit had discovered, but suddenly she wished she didn’t have to go there.

But he’s not one of them, either. I think it’s worth talking about how you’re dealing with him. And if you have feelings, I think that’s worth looking at, too. And that is why I’m here.” She flushed. “I’m worried about you.”
