  “I’m still fuzzy on Henry Lee’s role in this, though,” Pauling said.

  “Chalk that one up to Steele,” Wyman said. “God rest his soul.”

  Pauling, despite their differences over the years, had been shocked and saddened to learn that Tisdale had killed Steele back in Georgia.

  “Steele discovered Lee?”

  “Inadvertently,” Wyman said. “When he cast his net for Giles’ old cases, Henry Lee’s name had come up. It seems that Treasury had looked at Lee’s books, Tisdale was monitoring Steele’s progress. When he saw that a guy who handled money for uber-wealthy clients less than an hour from Margrave had been looked at, Tisdale rolled the dice.”

  Wyman’s glass was empty and Tallon refilled it.

  “Lust, greed and hate,” Pauling said. “It’s always one of them that provides motivation for the worst kind of human behavior.”

  “In this case, it was two out of three,” Tallon pointed out. “Tisdale still lusted after his wife and he was greedy enough to think money could win her back.”

  “Crazy stuff,” Wyman said. “The whole office is shattered. Giles, Steele and Tisdale, all dead. We lost the entire leadership of the NY office.”

  “What’s that saying – the only thing constant is change?” Pauling asked.

  Tallon raised his glass.

  “Let’s drink to changes – for the better,” he said.

  The sound of their crystal clinking together sounded like music.
