Chapters 4-5 Summary

Spenser learns that Mickey is a stunt man and that he witnessed a bribe being paid while he was working on a movie a few weeks before. Mickey saw a producer, Sam Felton, paying off some guy who looks a lot like the guy who beat up Candy at Summit Studios. Mickey, however, is Candy's only witness and the only evidence she has at the moment. Spenser questions what Mickey saw, suggesting that Felton could have been paying off a bookie or something less criminal, but Mickey insists that it had the feel of a bribe being paid.
