latto and martinez went trough the plan carefully.
when they reached agreement, martinez went out to his car and came back with an mp3 recorder.
hejoined it up to the motel room phone.
latto picked up the phone.

crocker's secretary wanted to know his name and his business.

and i want to speak to him about a book-a book to help patients who have parkinson's disease.
crocker was on the line in less than thirty seconds.
what can i do for you, dr latto?
latto smiled to himself.
i think it's more a question of what i can do for you, he said.

i don't know what you're talking about, replied crocker.
his voice didn't sound worried at all.
i understood you were interested in copies of a book about helping parkinson's patients.
