Emmanuel da Costa had been a bit old fashioned in many ways. He had moved with the times, yes, had embraced the computer revolution, had had at the time of his death a black berry, a home PC, a laptop, and a host of other tools used to keep him connected with his company and the world. But he had also insisted on keeping expensive looking leather bound appointment books. He would record his appointment in his black berry yes, but than he would write it down in his book. He hadn't completely trusted all the technology, Roberto supposed, or else he just had been unable to break the habit of writing everything down. And Roberto did suspect his father had written everything down.
Flipping through the appointment book his father ahd been using at the time of his death, Roberto paused as he glanced down at the notation for November 26th, 2009.
Was written there in his fathers professional looking hand. He shook his head, his father had gotten the appointment book in early 2009, and had gone through and made notes for things not happening until near the end of the year. Things of course that Emanuel hadn't lived to see Roberto shook his head and flipped back to near the beginning of the book, no wanting to dwell more on the fact that his father wasn't going to be around for his birthday this year.
A notation from January indicating 'Hellfire Party' caught Roberto's attention. His father at least played lip service to the Catholic faith, went to mass every Sunday, and made a production of going to Christmas and Easter services. He Roberto didn't really connect the phrase 'Hellfire' with his father. Unless his father was going to party for some group that was promising hellfire and brimstone to the sinners. Roberto knew he didn't know his father that well, but this ... intrigued him. So he grabbed a hold of his Black Berry and sent at text to his assistant asking him to confer with Emanuel's former assistant back in Brazil and ask him what she knew about this Hellfire Party his father went to in January.
