Call it Treachery

[rabidsamfan]

The sun had been gone for some time before the judge allowed that Wiggins and I might take a few minutes to refresh ourselves, and it was no surprise that we were not the only ones to take advantage of the opportunity. But as we were escorted back towards the courtroom we were intercepted by the prosecutor. "Might I have a word with the doctor?" he asked the bailiff at my elbow. "I promise he'll not escape me."

"I don't know, sir," the bailiff said, holding out a hand expectantly. My heart sank as I saw the flash of gold.
