Setting the Scene
Nikki Garcia is on assignment in Colombia, South America, investigating allegations of wrongdoing. Listen in to her phone conversation with Theya, administrative assistant to Sr. Del Campo:
Excerpt from the Book
“I’m so glad you called,” Theya said. “I was just going to call you because Sr. Del Campo is having a dinner party at his home tomorrow night, and he would like for you to join them. He has a friend who’s a sculptor, and it might be nice for you to meet him.”
Manuel, inviting me to a dinner party at his home? I was flabbergasted. My first thought was to decline the invitation . . . I could turn it down since it was an invitation to the home of the person I was investigating. But on second thought, I’d have a firsthand look at the lifestyle of this individual—an opportunity not to be refused. Lifestyle analyses cost tens of thousands of dollars, and I was being offered the chance to obtain it totally free.
“Theya, thanks, I would love to meet a Colombian artist,” I replied. I just hoped I was not expected to buy an expensive piece of art.
