She frowned. Louis had finished his run three days before, but Johnson had said it just "wasn’t convenient" to meet sooner. That puzzled Sly, even worried her at a deeper level. Johnson had been really eager when he’d given her the contract. He wanted whatever dirt she could find on Morgenstern—not now, but right now. She’d gone to Louis immediately, even paid him a ten percen t "rush" charge to do the run at once. The conclusion was obvious: Mr. Johnson had needed the dirt either to make a major move on Morgenstern or else to prevent the lady from doing the same to him.
