Wading Into War: A Benjamin Wade Mystery - Plot & Excerpts
Burman made better visuals than I did anyway. Someone sidled up beside me. “You know, you could get a reputation.” I knew the voice of Gordon Gardner, reporter for the Houston Post-Dispatch. He wore his typical reporter uniform: brown suit, scuffed shoes, shirt in need of ironing, and a tie slightly askew. He and I were friends, but at that moment, I only saw a reporter. “What do you want?” I growled. “The real story.” I brushed past him, wanting to get as much distance from Burman as possible. I wouldn’t put it past him to make a show of asking just one more question, especially with the photographers at the ready. Gardner strolled along behind me. It wasn’t too long before I realized an obvious fact: I didn’t have a ride. I stopped and Gardner caught up to me. “Need a lift?” My mouth twitched in what could only be described as an involuntary smile. “Yeah.” “Tell me everything?” I pursed my lips. A realization dawned on me: I needed a way to get my own story out to oppose Burman’s.
