Sliver Of Silver (Blushing Death) - Plot & Excerpts
I wasn’t hiding, not really. By the third day, I had the entire office organized and looking again like professionals resided in the Trevelyan Dean Construction offices. I called the Kelley Temp agency and got a receptionist to come in three days a week until I could figure out what kind of shape Dean’s company was actually in. I couldn’t answer the phones and get any work done. So, a temp it was. Once clients discovered someone was in the office and actually answering the phones, the lines started ringing off the hook. I needed the help. Once I had some organization to the mess I’d inherited, I could actually evaluate what was going on in Dean’s finances. I dug through invoices, through purchasing records, utility bills, payroll files, building specs, and estimates. I started at the beginning of the mess and tried to match spending figures. Dean had set a profit margin of ten percent in previously filed paperwork from the jobs in the preceding five years.
