I’ve never heard of Montserrat or any woman with two childrenYou’re a desperate sniveling drunk and I’ll deny your insane allegations as the alcoholic fantasies of a convicted felon!” “Well done, CounselorBut denying any allegations made by me isn’t the core of your dilemma?” “A certain man in Paris, someone I didn’t realize was a living person, but I learned otherwise It’s somewhat murky how it came about, but a strange thing happened in MontserratI was mistaken for youwhat?” Gates was barely audible, his thin voice tremulousOdd, isn’t it? I imagine that when this man in Paris tried to reach you here in Boston, someone told him your imperial presence was out or away and that’s how the mix-up beganTwo brilliant legal minds, both with an elusive connection to a woman and her two children, and Paris thought I was you “What happened?” “Calm down, RandyAt the moment he probably thinks you’re dead “What?” “He tried to have me killed—you killedFor transgression,” “Oh, my God!” “And when he finds out you’re very much alive and eating well in Boston, he won’t permit a second attempt to fail!” “There may be a way out, Dandy Boy, which is why you must come and see meIncidentally, I’m in the same suite at the Ritz that you were in when I came to see youThree-C; just take the elevatorBe here in thirty minutes, and remember, I have little patience with clients who abuse Robert Ludlum ??
