When Laurie nodded, Grace continued. “I hope you get Penny Wiggins.”
“Yes, that was her name.”
“Good. She’s mine, too.”
“Well, at least you have a woman barrister. I’m not sure what my friend will get me. I haven’t had a chance to talk with him. I had to leave a message on his office machine. I hope he gets it tonight, although I doubt it matters if he gets it tomorrow morning. We’re here for at least two days.”
“What’cha in for?” Grace asked.
“Drug sting,” Cam answered.
“That’s tough. I’m only here for three months. I’ve done one already.” She looked from Laurie to Cam. “I got caught with too many groceries and a few other things in my pocket.” She looked at Cam. “You sound like you’ve been in before.”
“Yes, in the States, I did a three-year term.”
“Three? For?”
“Same. I sold a gram of coke to an undercover bitch.”
“Damn! Three years for a gram? Things must be really tight there.” Grace couldn’t believe it.
