Shy sat down in her chair and picked up the phone to call Patrick to tell him what happened. And then she did the last thing that she wanted to do.
I gotta call Michael and tell him that he was right.
Chapter Seventeen
“Who?” Black asked, when Shy called him in Port Saint Lucie.
“Andrade Ferreira?”
“Shit.”
“What’s wrong?”
“I wish you would have told me that’s who Valencia put you on to.”
“What?”
“Andrade may be a simple tobacco farmer, but the rest of his family are The Comodoro Cartel.”
“Oh, shit.”
“Yeah, oh, shit.”

“You think?” Black exhaled. “I’ll be back tonight.”
“No, Michael. I don’t want you to cancel your meetings. This is nothing but the DEA fishing. They don’t have anything on me … because there is nothing,” she laughed. “It’s like Patrick said, you and I have been playing nicely in our own sandbox lately. Stay and finish your business.”

“Who the fuck is Andrade Ferreira?”
When Geno heard the name Andrade Ferreira, he felt a cold chill all over his body.
“He’s a tobacco farmer, but his brothers and the rest of his family are The Comodoro Cartel.”
“That’s not good.”
“Not at all. See what you can find out. I’ll be back in the city tomorrow, and I expect you to know everything about this,” Black said, and without another word he ended the call. Rain
