тАЬHey Jake, take a look at this.тАЭ

Jacob kept on ratting the hair of the Anabe Agency model sitting placidly
before him into a gauzy puff-ball of processed-down-to-colorless brittle strands
which hovered over her (if you could still call what sat on the chair in front of Jacob
a her) taut-skinned skull like a tumbleweed which had lost its central core of thicker
dried branches, until Shane repeated, тАЬJacob, take-a-look-at-this.тАЭ

Knowing that whichever of the Anabe Girls sitting there (was she Odella or
Letje, Radella or Paola?) wasnтАЩt about to wander off in search of a cup of coffee, or
a fresh pack of cigarettes, Jacob put down his ratting comb on the table of hair

Shane was looking at the exposed nape of his Anabe Agency modelтАЩs neck,
pushing aside his girlтАЩs forward-and-upward ratted mane of crispy-processed hair
with one hand, as he probed a small patch of stretched-tight-neck-flesh with the
forefinger of his free hand. For her part, the model (Coretta, Vibeke, perhaps
Carling?) didnтАЩt seem to notice that she was staring not at the rush and bustle of the
pre-showing backstage chaos surrounding her, but instead at her own baseball-bat
thin legs, and bas-relief patella jutting up sharply under the smooth, hard skin of her
knees. A singular trait of the Anabe Agency girlsтАФno bitching, no wiggling around,
no constant chomping and cud-chewing of gum ... just blessed stillness, and deep
focus.

тАЬThe damn bitch does brand them ... like freaking range-roaming cattle.тАЭ

Jacob didnтАЩt need to ask who тАЬthe damn bitchтАЭ wasтАФin the last five years,
ever since sheтАЩd started agenting her astonishing girls, and inundating every major
casting with dozens of her тАЬfindsтАЭ the latest wunderkind of the modeling worldтАЩs
name was known by both constant exposure and earned reputation to anyone and
everyone in the fashion world. Ms. Stephanie Steele, also known and loathed as
Miss Steal by all the modeling agencies whose girls routinely lost runway slots at
