Description
There was a message on Geoff's machine from a woman who seemed to know him. "It's Phyllis," she said, but she sounded younger than any Phyllis he could imagine. "It was great to chat, and I'm hoping you'll help me with Emily when we're in Barbados the week of the 29th. Of course, you'd be compensated. You'd need to stay at the house, though. Or maybe you know of someone else." Then there was a phone number, three times. Geoff put his briefcase on the table, took Brone out to whiz, got a beer and played the message again. He wrote down the key words, like a dimwitted detective: Phyllis, last week, Emily, house. The name Emily rang a distant bell, but he was sure he didn't have any students named Emily this year, thank God, since if a parent were asking him to babysit a teenage girl he'd quit his job from embarrassment.
