Joel tells Kingston what he knows, then drives me home. As we ascend toward the street I start feeling better. Out in open air I breathe deeply, delighted to be free.

"Soon, I think, our informant's gotta tell me what he wants," Joel says. "He's setting me up, wants me to be too scared to refuse."

"What could he possibly want, Joel?"

"I don't know. But next time he calls I'm going to have it out with him. I'm tired of this shit, kiddo." Joel's mouth is twisted, his eyes cold with anger. "I'm going to tell him time's come to cut the crap."

On Russian Hill, when I get out of the car, I'm reeling with paranoia. Joel shakes his head.

"Great evening, huh?"

"Yeah, great evening. Night, Joel."

I wait till he drives off, then enter my building. As I ascend in the elevator, I ask myself: Are we mad or is it just the world?
