William F. Weld Big Ugly Simon & Schuster 1999 0684853477 / 9780684853475 Hardcover Very Good "'() That night I dreamed of Detective Lieutenant Rudy Solano, my deer-hunting buddy, my fellow crime-fighter, who got me my job as an assistant U.S. attorney in Brooklyn. My dead buddy... Then I saw the money on the bed, I saw the cheap metal bedpost, the bare lightbulb. My one-room apartment...That was the first time I took too much money, money that didn't belong to me. Thanks, Rudy. Then, still in his police uniform, Rudy Solano was a judge, pointing at me, lecturing me: How could you do this? I was a prisoner in the dock, I was on trial... Solano's face began to sweat and shake, as I had seen it do in life. He fell from the judge's bench, landing in the snow, in hunting clothes covered with blood, as I had found him when Sergeant Gatto drove me up to Jaffrey that Saturday night. I was there, in the snow, in my dream. The yellow tape from the police barrier stuck to my clothes. It was still there the next day when I walked into my office in the Hart Senate Office Building.
