Mosley: If you want a trim, you got to wait. It's Mosley's meal time.

I was thinking a
shave, Mr. Mosley. Blind alley cat can shave and eat. Heard Mississippi Fred
McDowell coming from your shop. Thought a blues fan might be able to tell me a bit
about Blind Blake's time in Margrave. Huh. Surprised a white man your age knows
Fred McDowell. More surprised you know Blind Blake, Mr. Reacher. Small town. When
a giant stranger gets arrested for murder, word gets around. Course, Ms. Roscoe
cleared you, so I ain't scared of you none. My age, I ain't scared of nothing much.
Yeah, me neither. And everyone just calls me Reacher. Even my mother did. Well,
back you go. You know, my sister sang with Blake a few times back in the day. He'd
come through town each year, play the church or some barn in the sticks. ( chuckles
) I heard he died here. That's the rumor. People would come from all over town to
hear it, even white folks. Reacher: One hell of a town it is. Freshly painted gazebo.
Manicured flower beds. Statue recently polished. Got to think it's more than civic
pride. ( chuckles ) That it is. The Kliner Foundation takes care of Margrave. Ever
since Mr. Kliner came to town about five years back from St. Louis to set up his
company right here. What kind of company is that? ( scoffs ) You name it, Kliner do
it. Real estate, trucking, chemicals, machine parts. That statue out there? Casper
Teale? His grandson's our mayor. He gave Kliner a sweetheart land deal for his
factory. And in return, Kliner pours money into the town. Win-win. Mosley: That there
is Kliner Jr. and his bughouse cousin Dawson. Everyone calls Junior KJ. I call him
trouble. Keep my seat warm, would you? You looking for a dance partner? 'Cause the
last person who eyeballed me like that was a woman down in Panama when I was
stationed at Fort Sherman, and she wanted to dance the tamborito with me. Do you
want to dance the tamborito with me? Hell, I'll dance. Not talking to you, peewee. I
was talking to the guy in pricier boots, better haircut and expensive truck he lets you
sit shotgun in. ( chuckles ) So... you want me to lead or...? I'm not much of a dancer.
More of an academic and a reader.
