St. Urbain's Horseman
“Urbain’s Horseman 2 SURFACING FROM A DREAM OF THE HORSEMAN, ONLY A week after Ingrid had formally filed charges against him and Harry, he thought – no fear, Jake – soon Ormsby-Fletcher will arrive.

Ormsby-Fletcher.
When it became obvious, even to Jake, that there woul...d be no stopping Ingrid’s complaint and that the case would actually go to court, his first embarrassed thought was he did not want a Jewish lawyer, no twisting, eloquent point scorer who would outwit judge and prosecutor, eat witnesses, alienate the jury, shine so foxily in court in fact as to ultimately lose him the case. No. Say what you like about the goyim, they had their uses. For his defense Jake required an upright plodding WASP; and, in his mind’s eye, swishing cognac around in his glass night after night, Jake methodically fabricated his identi-kit champion.MoreLess
