“You wouldn’t be the first.” I related the brontosaurus quip. “But if you see his picture. Or read his record. It’s another story.”
“Sounds like a monster,” Blanchett said, shaking his head. He was thick-waisted, in contrast to his celery-stalk-thin boss, and saddled with a weak chin and a receding hairline. But he also had the personable manner of a skilled concierge and a shy smile that bordered on engaging.
“The woman who’s helping you,” Bardwell said. “Theresa? You said she’s a survivor of trafficking herself?”
“That’s right.”

“I can ask.” I recalled Roy’s concerns. Thought of Theresa’s confrontational comment to Mr. Patel. How about when they undress? “But no promises. She didn’t sign up for that kind of thing.”
“Understood,” Blanchett said, nodding. “Only if she’s comfortable with it.”

Bardwell nodded sadly. “I’ll also be announcing new initiatives dealing with these personal ad sites. They’re open markets for prostitution disguised as online dating. The fear is that many of the girls are underage, though it’s hard to prove it. Reardoor.com is one of the worst offenders.”
