I finally gave up and grabbed a yogurt to eat while I checked my e-mail. I learned that Lindsay had arranged a 9:30 appointment with Martha McDowell, the woman who'd told the Better Business Bureau she'd been scammed by Tremain to the tune of about $10,000. The woman hadn't wanted to talk to me initially, but Lindsay had gotten Matt to vouch for me. The end result was that Martha would only talk to me if Matt was also there. I was expecting him to be at my door in fifteen minutes to give me a ride to the meeting. I jumped up and raced to change out of pajamas. My closet contained nothing but casual clothes that were too old and worn to wear to a business meeting and more of the conservative linen suits I used to wear during trials, where the goal was to keep from wearing anything that might potentially offend a jury member. I had a similar goal now: to reassure Martha that I was professional and nonthreatening so she would be willing to talk to me about Tremain. The pale linen jacket and matching pants ought to do the trick, even if it made me look a bit out of touch with fashion.
