Nancy agrees without complaint, wishes me a pleasant day and hangs up.

“Have you had any contact with Carter Clinton since they fired you?” Josh asks. He is in full blown lawyer mode, hands stuffed in his pockets and pacing in the sand in front of me.

“No, you know I haven’t.”

“Are you close with any of the other associates there?”

I think back. “I was friends with a couple girls, but I’ve been too embarrassed to keep in touch since I left. One emailed me about a month ago and wanted to get together for lunch, but I never responded to her.”

“Hmm.” Josh appears lost in thought. “Something is fishy here. There are hundreds of good lawyers around, so why would they want you specifically?” He shifts awkwardly and clears his throat. “No offense. You are a really smart lawyer, but it doesn’t make sense that they would crawl to get you back, not when they are a multi-million dollar law firm. Firms like that don’t ever admit they were wrong.”

“No offense taken,” I say. “I am as clueless as you are.”
