The General took the receiver from me, Turgeon hovering at
one comer of the desk, hand on the grip of his sidearm. I moved
to my equipment, changed headsets, and nodded to Van Home.
The General nodded back and said into the phone, "This is
Alexander Van Home. Where is Kenny?"
"Takes you a long time to get to the phone, old man."
"I'll speak to him before we go any further or we go no
further."
There was a sound like a hang-up. The General took the phone
away from his ear, looking first to Kerstein,then back to me. I
shook my head, pointing to my headset. Van Home had just returned
the receiver to his ear when I heard, "Hi, Gra-da, s'me, Kenny."
The General seemed to be lost between death and heaven. He
squared his features somehow and sat straighter in the chair.
There was a hang-up noise again, followed by the original
sound. "That's your taste, old man. Now we deal."
Van Home said, "State your terms."
"First, no police."
"None have been summoned."
"No word games. Are police of any kind involved in this?"
"No. No police at all"
"Second, one...million...dollars."
