Assassin's Silence: A David Slaton Novel - Plot & Excerpts
He could think of only one way. He walked to Geitawi Hospital, and at the main entrance encountered a reception desk staffed by a pair of young women, one of whom was talking on a phone. Slaton approached the other, and said, “I’m looking for Dr. Nassoor.” The woman replied in the English he’d started, “I’m sorry? Who did you say?” Her accent was heavy, but at least he wouldn’t have to suffer through Arabic. “Dr. Nassoor,” he repeated. “Can you tell me where to find him?” “There is no doctor here by that name.” When the second woman hung up the phone, she asked her, “Do you know of a Dr. Nassoor?” A blank stare, and then, “You mean Moses?” “Yes, that’s right,” Slaton said. “I rarely hear him referred to as a doctor, but I suppose that’s what he is. Do you have an appointment?” “He’s expecting me later this week, but I was forced to move up my schedule.” “Of course. Basement level, you’ll find his office on the right.” “Thank you.”
