Because Mick had reason to hate Trotter with an
intensity
chanel bags outlet nearly
homicidal, he had risked sharing information with Corky. Jealous rage of
operatic proportions had caused him to violate his usual standards of client
confidentiality.
For his part, Trotter had earned Mick’s enmity, though
he seemed unaware of it. He had stolen Mick’s girlfriend.
Mick’s
girlfriend had been a porn-movie star renowned in certain jerky circles for the

A sadness came into
Trotter’s Mad Hatter eyes. His walruslike face drooped.
Resigned, he led
Corky into the house.

Trotter a lesson, had not been repaired; however, the living-room display
shelves had been filled with a new collection of Lladro porcelains—statuettes of
