He looked at Fenton who answered. "It could work, but most likely it would spook
him a bit. He would not be as open with a new comer there. Another issue is that
Charles may want to check up on you, so it may be a larger gamble."
Edwards cut in to sum up, "It could work, but there are risks involved. Your call.
My deal says I have to help, not gaurantee information. I am really trying to
help..."
