Emma



Pamela goes to a rundown building that smells of “stale, greasy cooking and cat urine” to meet with E. Malone. Emma...

Emma is described as someone with a slim androgynous body, but eyes that had seen too much in her life. Emma is surprised to see Pamela and wants to know what Love wants with her.

Pamela explains that Love doesn’t know she’s there, using the excuse of “women’s troubles” to get him to leave her alone. (I honestly love this excuse, and have used it in the past to get out of things. *g*)

Pamela identifies herself as Casey’s wife and tells Emma she knows all about the murder and her assumptions about the set-up of Casey.

Pamela then begins to work Emma (she’s very good, btw!) talking about Emma’s past with her father’s partner, the murder of Lt. O’Donnell, her involvement in setting up Rosemary...all actions Pamela believes Emma did on Love’s behalf.

Emma tells how she believes that Love was the one who killed her twin brothers. She shares about her past in Southie and how her involvement with Love kept her there.

Pamela finally lays out her terms: She wants Emma’s help in taking Love down. Emma tells Pamela about a “pipeline of heroin” and advises Pamela to watch Blackie.

At the end of their conversation, Emma’s son, Jakey, comes out of his bedroom. From his physical description he could very well be Love’s son.

Emma’s last words to Pamela as she leaves are:
Pray that the bastard doesn’t make a fist before you manage to get out of his palm. (pg 106)
