“Okay, maybe we’d better start from the beginning.”
“Ya think?” Boso chided me, shaking her blond head. “Listen, meeting Morrie’s the first big break I’ve gotten since I came to New York, okay? I mean, he’s like a major, major producer. And he promised he’d put me in Wuthering Heights, okay? Hire me as the understudy for Isabella, Edgar’s sister. If I’d do a sort of favor for him.”

Not the sleazy kind.MoreLess
