Smooth Talking Stranger
“I got nothing but evasions, silences, or implausible excuses.
I was being stonewalled. I knew it would be impossible for me to get a meeting with Gottler on my own. He was way up in the adminisphere of the church, secluded and sheltered from the reach of mere mortals.
When I told Dane about the problem, he said he might have a helpful connection. The church had an extensive network of charities, and an old friend of his had something to do with Eternal Truth’s Central American outreach.... Unfortunately those efforts fell through, and I was left at square one again.
“You should ask Jack,” Haven said on Friday after she got off work. “This is the kind of problem he’s really good with. He knows everyone. He’s not shy about calling in favors. And if *I’m *not mistaken, I think the company has a couple of contracts with that church.”
