Book of Night

Charlie prepares to confront Vince but worries that he might try to harm her. She waits for him to come home and then admits she knows his real name and his past. Vince becomes defensive and admits he’s killed before, for Lionel Salt. He hints that he has the Liber Noctem. They argue, and Vince leaves.

Charlie decides to take out her frustration by stealing from Adam and returning Adam to his girlfriend.

Charlie dresses up to sneak into Adam’s hotel and steal his book. She assesses her environment like a professional thief and manages to steal a maid’s keycard. Inside Adam’s room, she finds a pawn shop receipt for a ring that belonged to Doreen and a notebook belonging to Knight Singh. As she prepares to leave, Adam returns, talking on the phone with someone about a horse race. Charlie hides in the bathroom. She tries to will her shadow to defend her, but it stays silent. When she hears Adam say he’ll take a shower, she texts Doreen and tells her about the ring. Doreen calls Adam and convinces him to meet her. He leaves, and Charlie is able to escape. Charlie goes to the pawn shop and trades the race tip she overheard from Adam for Doreen’s ring.
