Fifteen The Senior Sergeant shuts the door, trapping my back up out of the office and she walks around the desk to the chair she uses for official arse-whuppings. She puts her hand on the top of it and demands to know what I’ve done to bring a federal official down on all our heads. It’s even worse,...
