“Twenty minutes late for work now and on her fourth circuit around the block in one of the worst sections of downtown Cincinnati’s Over-the-Rhine, where every moment without being eyeballed, leered at or questioned by the police was cause for celebration, Marian Barber finally saw Jerome. Cursing everything about him, from his collection of thuggish friends, all of whom probably had an early violent death and/or prison time in their immediate future, to his insolent black stare to his baggy jean...s, black skull cap and pristine athletic shoes—green today; they’d been orange last time—she pulled the Land Rover up to the curb in front of a shabby brown-stone and rolled the passenger side window down to talk to him. The SOB took his own sweet time about sauntering over to her. She checked her watch, impatient to get to work and, more than that, to take her meds so she could face work. The more time she spent in this shithole, the more chance there was of getting caught, but she couldn’t worry about that.MoreLessRead More Read Less
