Boddy stifled his feelings of apprehension by speaking gruffly to Butler Bierman, "So you've got something to tell me, eh? Well, out with it! I don't have all day."
"Yes, sir. Just a second, I'm waiting for someone."
Just then, the door opened, an apparition in white entered the room.
Boddy immediately recognized the woman as Ms. White, a wealthy library trustee. Elegant and sophisticated, Ms. White carried herself in a manner that made many people hesitate before entering into conversation. But Boddy was less easily intimidated. He had crossed paths with her once before.
"Ms. White." Boddy acknowledged her presence with a nod of approval. "This is a surprise."
She closed the door behind her softly and removed her dark sunglasses. "Not half as surprised as you're going to be when you see what I have to show you..."

Rovers and Infoline are virtually in complete support of the Butler. In fact it seems to be the purple vs 2009 SRC tshirts teams today! I'm on the SRC team. That memo I gave must have helped.
Ms. White was invaluable...As was the Butler. It now seems that the tide against Ms. Scarlet is growing in strength. Only time will tell if she will be up to the task of being truly elusive.
