“I know it by heart.”
“Hurd, you remember that building over on the north side of the property that has the vaults?”
“Yeah, I got a look at it once, after the Feds busted everybody.”
“Do you know if there’s been any activity around that building?”

“Sure.”
“Don’t let anybody see you.”

“No, keep it to yourself.”
“All right.” He got into his Range Rover and drove away.

“The guy from the GSA?”
“How many Willard Smiths can there be?”
“I’d better get back to Harry with that.”
“Are you sure you should, Grant? I mean, in light of our conversation last night?”
“It’s something Harry ought to know,” Grant said.
