“Rudy? You can’t take the stairs. We’re having dinner on the 71st floor.”
“It’s okay, Boss. I can walk up.”
Behcet Kaya, Murder in Buckhead
“As we passed the 10th floor, we found ourselves staring down at the city of Atlanta as we moved ever faster towards the 72nd floor. Rudy’s color changed dramatically. His face turned deathly white, which scared the hell out of me. But that was only the beginning. He began screaming, then slid down to the floor and covered his head with both of his arms.”
Behcet Kaya, Murder in Buckhead
“Been following you, Ludefance. You’ve garnered a great deal of attention with three high-profile cases. Brought each one to a successful close. So, I thought who better to recommend to a very sweet woman who’s just lost her only son and is married to a, excuse the expression, ‘prick.”

“Jack. You called? What’s up, buddy?”
When he calls me Jack, I know he is worried or anxious about something. Otherwise, it’s either Ludicrous or Swamp. Not sure where the ‘buddy’ came from. That was a new one.”

“Now what are you doing Jack? Are you falling for the female power again? Hey, get a hold of yourself. You have very dangerous people to deal with. Don’t let Blaire’s sexuality get to you.”

“Now look. I didn’t mean the senator killed the old man himself, but he makes things happen. The old man wouldn’t sell his property to Senator Olmsted. Two weeks later, the old man’s body was found down by the town creek. According to the autopsy, he died from a Copperhead snake bite.”

“Look. I’m very sorry to hear about your predicament, but let’s get a few things clear. I’m a PI. I solve crimes after there’s foul play. You’re saying your father-in-law is trying to kill you. That’s police business. I don’t provide bodyguard service. Really, this is not a job for me. Sorry.”
Behcet Kaya, Murder in Buckhead
“Just a moment Mrs. Olmsted, Ma’am. I haven’t finished yet. I need to ask you a couple more questions.”
She turned back to face the detective, her tears subsiding.
“Could you tell me where you’ve been for the last several hours?”
“Where I’ve been?”
“Yes, Ma’am.”
“My husband is lying here dead, and you have the audacity to ask me where I’ve been?”
Behcet Kaya, Murder in Buckhead
“Panting and out of breath all he can get out is, “Body! Body!”
“Mr. Ingly? Slow down! What’s the matter?”
“Dead body!”
Ingly, still panting and out of breath, sits down heavily in one of the cushy lobby chairs.
“Didn’t you hear me? There’s a dead man…lying on the sidewalk…just around the corner! Call the police! My dog is there. I couldn’t catch him!”

“So, wait. Now I’m confused. What about the senator’s son, the guy that fell? The Olmsteds hired you to investigate their son’s death and you end up investigating the senator? Swamp, you’re acting really weird. The man’s paying your fees. I don’t follow the logic.”
