A Deadly Development
“Dick Houlihan held court every weekday morning at a popular breakfast restaurant on the Country Club Plaza. It was the place where Kansas City power brokers went to see and be seen. Granted, the food was good and the service was excellent, but that’s not why he came. Houlihan liked it because there was only one large room for the entire restaurant. The dining floor was one large rectangle - bar and hostess table at the front, a phalanx of tables in the middle; and at the back, the restrooms and... the kitchen. No one could get in or out without Houlihan noticing.
He always sat at the same table with his back to the southern wall. From this vantage point, he could not only see every individual who was in the restaurant but could also gaze through the floor to ceiling windows on the north side of the restaurant to see who was walking along 47th Street.
Like every morning, he wore a blue Italian suit, white silk shirt, and a scarlet red tie and matching suspenders. His thick salt and pepper hair was brushed straight back into a tall pompadour.MoreLess
