Jacob Two-Two Meets The Hooded Fang (2009) - Plot & Excerpts
Suddenly, the cell door clanged open and a fat policeman thrust somebody toward him, saying, “Jacob Two-Two, it is my duty to inform you that you and your visitor are, according to the strict letter of the law, allowed one hour together … before facing the judge.” The visitor who had come tumbling into the cell was quite the scruffiest, skinniest, and most untidy man Jacob Two-Two had ever seen. With tangled gray hair and weepy blue eyes. His shirt collar was frayed, and his tie soup-stained. His suit was rumpled. His shoes were scuffed, the laces broken. Beaming at Jacob Two-Two, he declared: “Meet your barrister, Louis Loser.” “Oh, I’m very pleased to meet you, Mr. Loser,” said Jacob Two-Two two times. “Are you, really?” replied Louis Loser, astonished. “Yes. But what’s a barrister? What’s a barrister?” “Your protector in court.” “Oh, but I haven’t got any money, Mr. Loser. I couldn’t afford to pay you.” “Of course not,” said Louis Loser impatiently.
