Pompeii
Brick has a husband and a man on the side, Vincent, the client across the table. Quiet. Fox-sly.
On a trip in Italy for a conference, Pompeii is not on the original itinerary, but Brick needs the distraction.
Somewhere between the Forum and a tree off the path, Brick is trying to remember which fire he came here to let burn out.
