I finally gave into Jesse Pinkman’s pleading, picked up the silver automatic Volvo at Picardy Place, and accepted the stolen mobile phone. We would cook with Badger in an empty house off Pilrig Street. For the time being it was easy to hide everything from TPR because he was away on a business trip.

When TPR eventually returned I handed over the £60,000 that he was owed from our previous partnership. He had no idea that I was continuing the illegal drug trade with the others in secret.
