“I know a lawyer who’d take your case for free to get the exposure.”
“You do? Who is he?”
“His name is Collins Worthy, and he’s an absolute shark. If you want attention for your situation, you need him on your team.”
“You heard what the guard said. I was denied bail, and my assets are frozen.”
“He’d take a case like yours for free for the exposure, and he can get you a new bail hearing.”
“Why are you telling me this?”
“Because I’m a mother, too, and my kids don’t care about me either. We have to stick together.”
“Yes, we do. How can I get him on my case?”
“Ask the guards to call him for you.”
“And they’ll do it?”
“They have to.”
“How do you know all this?”
“Not my first rodeo, sugar.”
“What’s in it for you?” Nicoletta asked, leery of anything that seemed too good to be true.
“Maybe you could keep a spot for me when you get back to work.”
“Have you worked in the field before?”
“Here and there, but not with the success you’ve had.”
“Did you know who I was before I mentioned my son?”
“I sure did. You’re a legend in these parts.”
“Is that so?” Nicoletta sat up straighter. “That’s nice to hear.”
“We need to get you out of here and back to doing what you were born to do.”
“From your lips to God’s ears. What’s your name?”
“Amber Richmond.”
“It’s nice to meet you.”
“You, as well. Tell them to call Collins for you. He’ll get you out of here and make your son sorry he disrespected you.”
“I’ll do that.”
“And when I get out of here, you’ll take my call?”
“You’re damned right I will.”
Freddie beganhis day with a call to Cara Quinn. “This is Detective Cruz circling back with another question.”
“Whatever I can do.”
