The Same Mistake Twice (2013)
“Beefy and florid in the face, he shook the hand of a shorter, slighter man. As Tillotson approached the house from the curb, the big man turned and noticed that he had company. He gave a meaningless smile and nod and strode past Tillotson and down the front walk to a black Crown Victoria. A man in a matching black suit pushed himself upright from the rear door he was leaning on and opened it. The big man didn’t have to break stride as he stooped to climb into the car.
Tillotson placed the man. ...He had seen him on the news posturing self-righteously in Trenton over school vouchers or some such thing The smaller man had already gone on to his next item of business, which was Tillotson.
“Mr. Rennert? I called earlier.”
“Detective Tillotson.”
Rennert offered a hand. “I’m sorry. I should have introduced you to the State Senator.”
“I can’t vote for him. I don’t live in his district.”
Rennert smiled.
“What a pleasure. Most people wouldn’t have known that much. Come in.”MoreLess
