Feelers
“Aside from scaring off Wolfman from in front of my building, he managed to do some research back at his office, stop by to wake Frog and interrogate him, and visit the house on Vanderhoosen Drive. Dexter could have gone home at that point, gotten some sleep, but there was one more thing he wanted to do. It was a long shot, but worth a try. Just as the sun was coming up, as I was looking out the window across the Brooklyn rooftops, he was pulling into the parking lot of the Luna Motel—the bump a...nd thump.
He had spent many hours parked out in front of the bump and thump. Watching and waiting. Especially as a younger reporter. Before he had dirt on everybody who was anybody in Brooklyn, he would do this to get compromising information on people. Local businessmen, small-time politicians, what have you. These were little fish swimming in and out of the bump and thump, cheating on their wives, on their girlfriends, and sometimes both. Dexter had no interest in ruining their lives, but little fish know things about larger fish, who know things about big fish, and there are scams going on all over the place, cushy deals, kickbacks—wherever business and politics cross paths, corruption is sure to follow.MoreLess
