“You might be right,” I say in a conspiratorial tone. “I know one fucked-upthing about her. My boss won’t let me print it, which is a fuckin’ shame.”Randall can’t resist this. He leans forward on his knees, too, piggy eyesglittering.Everybody loves a secret.“What is it?”I look around as if making sure nobody can hear us. I already made damnsure this booth in the corner was out of sight, but it gives the proper effect.“Guess Mara needed some cash a while back. She filmed a porn.”“She did?”Randall’s trying to play it cool, but I hear his breath catch. I see the way histhick hand clenches around his beer bottle.“Yeah. Some nasty, dirty shit. She bought it back from the studio, doesn’twant anybody getting their hands on it, but you know the internet neverforgets.”“You found it?”I grin, molars grinding in the back. “You’re damn right I did.”Now I sit back, triumphant, sipping my own drink. Waiting for what I knowis certain to follow.Another long silence from Randall. Then the low, urgent mutter, “You thinkyou could send that to me?”“I’ve got it on a flash drive back at the hotel.” I take another drink of mybeer, letting him squirm. Watching the flush rise up his neck. Then I put outthe real lure: the one he can’t possibly resist. “Some crazy shit in some kindaschoolgirl outfit …”He needs it now. He has to have it.“You can send me a copy, can’t you?”
“It sounds like we’re negotiating.” I give him a smile with just enoughsleaziness to seem genuine. “You got something for me? What about Mara’sdad—you know where he lives?”“I don’t even know his name,” Randall grunts. “Tori never said shit abouthim.”Damn it.“Well, I need pictures for the article. Any old photographs, yearbooks, letters…”“I didn’t keep any a that shit,” Randal scoffs.“Too bad.” I pretend to give up on the idea.Randall can’t let go of the prize. He’s licking his lips, clenching that beer likea grenade. Then he thinks of something.“I got a picture of her mom fuckin’ some Nazi.”I grin. “That sounds like a trade. Bring it to my hotel room.”“Nah.” Randall shakes his head. “I can’t drive that far. I got a cabin fifteenminutes from here. You can follow me up.”“Even better.”
