Who is Santos?” There was a pause on the other end as if the person on the line was weighing his options. Finally, the voice responded, “Santos is someone who can make your problems disappear. Someone who can restore you to your former glory, Mr. Johnson.” James’s eyebrows furrowed in confusion. How did this stranger know his last name? Had he been watching him?
