No matter how expressionless Amie tried to keep his face, Antoine knew what to look for. He was hiding something - there was more of a reason that his brother didn't want him involved in this than he was saying. There was something he didn't want reported back to him.

Before I decide if the man is trustworthy enough to be left in our home. And did you check his references?"
