Lassiter 01 - To Speak For The Dead - Plot & Excerpts
We listed our witnesses and physical evidence, including a certain "videotape portraying a prosecution witness, the decedent, the defendant, and an additional party." I wanted to see if it got a rise out of Socolow. I don't know if it did. But the widow surely noticed. "Mr. Lassiter," she purred on the phone. "Mrs. Corrigan," I said. "You have something I would like very much." "You want my 1954 Willie Mays baseball card?" "Don't toy with me, Jake," she said, impatiently. "So sorry, that's what I thought you wanted me to do." "And don't flatter yourself." "Okay, a business call, you want an appointment?" "I want to tell you things that you will want to hear." "Let me guess. My eyes remind you of the Mediterranean at sunset." My witty repartee will never get me a table at the Algonquin or a guest shot on Johnny Carson. She was quiet a moment, probably deciding whether to tell me to screw off.
