The Anteater of Death
“I poured Dad a glass of Riesling, and settled next to him on the salon’s settee. “You’re lucky I didn’t bash your head in.”“So that’s why you were holding that flashlight up so high.” He took a sip of the wine, made a face. “Jesus, this is cheap stuff.”“It’s all I can afford.”“Sorry about that.”I gave him a look. “I’ll bet.”“We are what we are, Teddy. Besides, you know that I set up a bank account for you in the Caymans. Still not using it?”“For charitable purposes only.” Like bailing friends o...ut of jail.“Aren’t you the self-righteous one.”Since there was no point in discussing ethics with my ethics-challenged father, I changed the subject. “Let me take a wild guess here. You’ve been hiding out at Caro’s.”He pushed his wine glass away. “Off and on. I arrived in town a week ago but your mother was having one of her awful parties, so I drove up to Santa Cruz and stayed on Al’s sloop.”Albert Mazer. The friend who’d kept the Merilee for me.MoreLess
