The Dogfather

have been an act of revenge perpetrated by someone with a grudge against Victor Deitz in his capacity as an FBI agent. I agreed.
    Speaking of cars, I still haven’t replaced my Bronco, but I have a lead on a new car. A puppy-training client of mine says he can get me a great deal. Indeed, in the spirit of full openness about my association with the Mob, I have to confess that I have not yet entirely freed myself from Enzio Guarini. In fact, he called me only a few days ago. He remains grateful to me for everything. “I owe you one,” said the Dogfather. “I owe you a big favor.”
