Midnight Pass: a Lew Fonesca Novel (Lew Fonesca Novels)
“I was back in the DQ parking lot and climbing the concrete stairs to my office and home a little after nine-thirty.
I called Kenneth Severtson’s number. No answer. I was relieved. I didn’t want to talk to him. I didn’t want questions.
“Your wife and kids will probably be back tomorrow,” I told his machine. “They’re fine. Be nice. Stark’s dead. Killed himself. A long story. Your wife will tell you.”
There was one message on my answering machine. It was one of the secretaries in the law offices o...f Tycinker, Oliver, and Schwartz.
“Mr. Fonesca”—her voice came through flat and dry—“Mr. Tycinker asked me to remind you that he needs those papers served on Mickey Donophin before Saturday. If we do not hear from you, he will assume you are unable to do this and will contact the Freewell Agency.”
I called Tycinker, Oliver, and Schwartz. There was no one there, but there was an answering machine.
“This is Lewis Fonesca,” I told it. “Tell Mr. Tycinker I’ll have the papers in Mickey Donophin’s hands within twenty-four hours.”MoreLess
