“It pulled into line two cars behind me. I turned away, my mind still rehashing Marrano’s revelation about Poe’s suicide attempt. I wanted to reach out and assure Poe he still had the confidence of his friends. That he shouldn’t give up. Easy for me to say, but I wasn’t the one wearing the orange jumpsuit or sleeping in a jail cell. I couldn’t even imagine a solution to his problems, so I decided to check in with my client. I called Erin Marrano as I drove slowly along Castillo Drive, passing th...e new Pirate & Treasure Museum. Her phone rang eight or ten times before her recorded voice asked me to leave a message. I didn’t want to break the news of Poe’s attempted suicide on the phone, so I said I wanted to talk with her and would check back later.

I crept along Charlotte Street hoping to find a parking place close to Henderson’s house.MoreLessRead More Read Less
