is money."

"I see. And how long before this project is completed?"

"Well, phase one should be well under way soon-that

means we hope to have sewer, water, streets, and utilities

installed this winter. Then actual housing construction will

 

start in early spring. But our a.s.sociate developer will begin

promoting and selling lots immediately. Any of your rich

California friends interested in a vacation home?"

She ignored that and continued to question him about lot

sizes, selling prices, amenities, and any other information

that might pertain to those interested in investing in the

development. And with congeniality, he carefully answered

each question. Then finally she glanced up from her notes

and looked him straight in the eye. "And where, may I ask,

will Mr. Westerly reside once the bulldozers start tearing up

She pressed her lips tightly together and, without

answering, solidly slammed the door almost in his face. She

knew it was childish and rude, but she couldn't help herself.

"I've got everything I need now," she said out loud as she

marched back into her office and flipped on her computer

switch, waiting irritably for the machine to warm up. Then

she furiously began writing her story, pounding on the key-
