Snap: New Talent
“He’d been turned when he was just 21 and retained the ebullience of his age, even though his professionalism made him a star in SNAP management. He headed up both the Paris office and the French language edition of SNAP, so had responsibility for covering a lot in the film, jet-set, Euro-trash wealthy population. Plus, he had the planet’s fashion leaders in his orbit, so he was a go-to guy for much of our content.Tonight, he had a laid on a mini pub-crawl of some spots after a quick tour of t...he office and introduction to some staffers. He, I, and my bags were in the SNAP Mercedes limo before I realized that Sandor had added others to our party. I could only see the back of his head in the passenger seat, but both this guy and the driver wore signature black suits.I glanced over to Francois, raised my eyebrows and waved my hand at the two heads. He gave me a Gallic shrug and mouthed two names that I thought were Denis and Michele. Hmmm, two demons in Paris to keep me safe? The limo pulled through tall double doors and parked in a courtyard of a 19th century building in the 7th Arrondisment. We were herded to an open-cage elevator that only held me, Francois and one of the demons. At the top floor, the elevator grille pulled open and we were in a foyer of a penthouse apartment.My mouth must have dropped because Francois giggled. “Even now, Maxie, you’re surprised at the Baron’s arrangements?”I tore my eyes away from the lighted Eiffel Tower, almost close enough to touch, and nodded. “Is this yours?”“Non, my apartment is a few blocks away. It’s behind the Ecole Miltaire and I’m high enough up that it feels like I’m living in the trees, but nothing as spectacular as this. Visitors are surprised the first time.”“Surprised”MoreLess
