XXIII.

Reed was barely coherent when he called his attorney, ranting about police harassment, a field in which business and entertainment lawyer Jacob Lanski was not at all experienced. Jacob Lanski had been Reed’s lawyer since he sold his first novel and was excellent at negotiating contracts to get both him and his clients the most money possible. But Reed doubted the man had ever been in a courtroom or been before a judge standing next to a client in handcuffs, which sounded exactly like where Reed was heading. Guilty or innocent, when the Philadelphia Police Department decided they had a good suspect, that suspect quickly became a defendant. Evidence got misplaced, witness’s testimonies changed, and innocent men went to jail. Reed was certain the man wanted no part of this and would try to find any excuse to avoid getting involved in what was about to become a very complicated drama, but leaving Reed hanging now could mean loosing a very lucrative client. Like it or not, the man was stuck, if he still wanted Reed as a client.

“Calm down, Reed. Calm down. Just tell me what’s going on.”

“These cops, they’re treating me like I killed my own family. They think Malcolm and I did it together or something. Every time I turn around they’re showing up on my doorstep. They’ve got me so pissed off I can’t even grieve! Jacob, my family’s dead! Doesn’t anybody understand that? It’s like my whole life just ended and these bastards are treating me like I’m a damn criminal!”

“Give me the two officer’s names and we’ll get a restraining order right away.”

“Detective Titus Baltimore and Detective Bryant . . . uh . . . James Bryant, I think. I’m not sure. He’s the quiet one. It’s the other one, Detective Baltimore. He’s the real asshole. Oh fuck! You’re not going to fucking believe this! I can’t believe this sonuvabitch! He’s back! That fucking detective . . . Baltimore . . . He’s walking up my fucking driveway right now!”

“You’ve got to be kidding me. I’ll take care of this. Let me make a few calls. Be cooperative. Don’t give him any reason to distrust you. You’ve got nothing to hide. I’m on my way over there.”

“I don’t want to say shit to this guy. I think he’s trying to frame me or something.”

“Then don’t. Just wait for me to get there.”
