Chapter 74

“Who’s on this committee? And how do they manage to have all this power?”

“People who can make sure that as long as we follow their rules, we stay under the radar.

There are actually more of them than there are of us.”

Randy tilted his head. “What’s a GDBCG?”

Some of them are trying to figure out how to make it stop, but there is no question in my mind that some of them are trying to figure out if they can recreate it.” He lifted both arms in a shrug, and then let them drop on to the table with a slap. “The doctor you saw at the hospital is one of their board members.”
