The jazz playing over the speakers, waiters in dinner jackets and bow ties, was all just smoke and mirrors for a giant whore house that also sold booze.

The so-called Nazi hookers were just Colombian whores following the money.

The cause of death of the Israel Ambassador was from mixing cocaine with Viagra, nothing sexy like an assassination.

'Sounds like a heroic death,' said Max.

Had I passed the test?

'Only if you pull yourself a few whores and fuck them silly.'

Max knew what was coming next and handed me a wad of cash.

I had no idea where he got most of it.

'Uncle Sam,' he said, and handed me more,' and here's your bonus.'

It was a book of American Express traveler's cheques, each a thousand each, and a hundred of them.

'Yes,' said Max,' I knew that would surprise you, but Langley has been very impressed with your work. And good work is always rewarded.'

The barman, an indigenous from Peru, with his hair slicked back with oil, must have been listening in because he said if I wanted to cash any of my cheques, they could do it at the bar.

And when the Colombian whores heard that, they were all over me like blowflies to a fresh turd.

What's a man to do, I thought.
