Chapter 27 Summary: “The Screen”

Charlie undergoes knee replacement surgery. His recovery is slow and painful, with private nurses attending to him around the clock. The Wiz comes to visit with two bits of news: The PlannersBanc workout division has given them a reprieve for now, and a website called “Chasing the Dragon” had revealed the name of the young woman Fareek raped as Elizabeth Armholster.

Meanwhile, Conrad has not been able to procure a job, his money is dwindling fast, and he is tired of living in his overcrowded room at Meadow Lark. As he makes his way back to the apartment, a Chamblee police cruiser pulls up next to him. Worried that the police may recognize him, Conrad walks into an antique shop situated in an old, crumbling wooden house. Trusting the elderly brother-sister duo who owns the shop, Conrad asks if they have a spare room he can rent. Impressed by Conrad’s assertion that he is a man of faith who believes in the Church of Zeus, the older folks offer a room in the attic for $75 a month.
