English said, “If you run Morgan out and Annabel where I don’t have to see her again, you’re going to get plenty.”
“It’s got to be better than that. I want some on the nail.”
English was silent for a moment. “I’ll open an account for you at the National. You can draw up to five thousand dollars.”
Duffy said, “You do that,” and hung up.
Gilroy came over from the window and took a glass from Schultz. He said, “Let’s go.”
Duffy sat down. “English is covering me. He’s lifted the heat for the moment. He’ll back me for dough if we give him action. I guess we might start right away.”
Schultz said, “What’s my split?”
“Five grand each,” Duffy said, doing sums in his head.
Shep nodded. “I could use that,” he said.
“Your first job is to find Annabel English,” Duffy said, folding his arms and resting his elbows on the table. “That jane is dangerous, and she’s got to be put where she won’t be.”
