“Senator Diamond is vacationing in France,” Michelle said, “…and if I want to get a message to him, only someone from his office is able do this. It would have to be an urgent message, otherwise they’ll just send it to his email.”
“I don’t want to send an email. Not about this.”
“So what, then?”
“Who decides if it’s urgent or not?”
“His staff in Ottawa, I guess. I don’t know for sure.”
“Then we have to send him an urgent message. One that his office will surely put through and one he will respond to.”
“What would that be?”
“Let’s go over what we know about him.” Richard picked up the pen and readied it above the notepad on the office desk.
“He was at the golf course on Friday,” Michelle said.
“Right. That’s a good one. Let him know we knew his whereabouts at the time. What else?”
A list was made of everything they could recall about the Senator, as well as what they suspected he knew about Lucy’s death and Michael’s kidnapping.
