2): A Novel @page { margin-bottom: 5.000000pt; margin-top: 5.000000pt; } Tirana Magdalena Skard “Tirana Magdalena was Adnan Zog’s only daughter.” “Zog being the don?” “Zog being the don, or whatever they call that exalted position in Albania. Anyway, his daughter was drop-dead gorgeous.” “How do you know that?” “Her beauty was the stuff of legend. At least in the seedy underbelly of Eastern Europe. At least according to my Deep Throat contact at Interpol. Also, there are photographs. Many photographs. Unlike the Skards, the Zogs, particularly Tirana Magdalena, had no problem with fame. In addition to being gorgeous, she was also high-strung, weird, artsy, and obsessed with wanting to be a dancer. Papa Zog didn’t give a shit about what she wanted. He just saw her as something of potential value. So when the ambitious young Giotto Skard took an interest in the sixteen-year-old Tirana at the same time as he was negotiating a business alliance with Zog, Zog tossed her in as part of the deal.
