Trust Me, I'm An AuthorHouse Sales Rep.
Lucky for me, before I ever earned my first thanksgiving bonus at AuthorHouse, I came to learn why Mr Weiss was picked by Bertram for the job (apart from the fact he is the most amazing liar I have ever met).
They picked Kevin because he is SO plausible. He is THE perfect frontman. Bertram needed someone who knew how to keep his mouth shut and keep the IRS not asking too many questions.
They found the talented Mr Ripley in dependable Kevin.
