“How are you at interstate custody cases?” I asked Ames.
“I don’t usually handle those personally,” he said, “but our firm has won more than we’ve lost.”
“And deprogramming?”
“We’ve handled a couple of those, too,” he said.
Peters looked at me then. He was beginning to get my drift. I winked at him. “You know, Ames, unless you’ve got something really pressing, I think I’d like you to stop by Broken Springs, Oregon, and see if you can pull Peters’ two kids out of there.”
Ames shrugged. “You’re the boss,” he said.
I think Anne Corley Beaumont—the Anne I loved—would have approved.
