Bab 218: Hiccup before the ride

Mr. Walsh couldn't believe someone had come to him disguised as a councilman. How could he have not bothered to ask for an identity badge. In a hurry to cover up his tracks of affair and the thought of being caught in murder, he hadn't expected he was going to fall into a deeper pit.
