The frame still sits crooked metal bent from a previous blow.
“Have you ever met a blond man, strong jaw, european?” The man rattles off.
“Can’t say I know him. I employ a lot of people.”

“A simple miscalculation on your part when pressed. Nothing more then that. Happens to every member.” The interrogator concedes moving in.
“Now,” the man lays down a photo like an offering. “What can you tell me about James?”
