Chapter 19: The Crew

Six men in black windbreakers came down the steel corridor at nine o'clock sharp, and none of them were ours.

They wore earpieces and carried a padlock the size of a fist.

I stood in front of the Well with my arms folded, and I was not alone.

The crew had come down before them, quietly, a few at a time, without anyone saying a word.

Riggers, sound techs, lighting techs and the wardrobe assistant stood shoulder to shoulder across the corridor.

Dougie Beck sat on a road case in the middle of the line.

His sticks lay across his knees, and he looked as relaxed as a man at a barbecue.

"Morning, lads," he said. "Lovely day for a lock."

The man with the padlock was thick-necked and polite.

"Mr. Pellam has authorized us to secure this area," he said. "For the integrity of the production."

"For the integrity," Dougie said, nodding.

"Please step aside."
