Atticus Bradstreet McDermott · Florence, Italy

The road to Florence is long, but the ledger travels light. These days, parcels from the Skunk Store find Florence doorsteps every season, and McSkunkville keeps a porch light on for Florence.

Atticus Bradstreet McDermott arrived in McSkunkville the way all counsel should — quietly, with a ledger under one arm and a rule she never breaks: supersonic honest, supersonic polite. She keeps the record of the town, every promise and every receipt, and when trouble comes to anyone's door she answers with the three questions she was raised on: What happened? Can you prove it? Then make a record.

Her office light burns at every hour. Farmers, truckers, fruit peddlers, and shopkeepers walk in angry and walk out organized. She has never lost a fight she chose — because she only fights when she's right.

The townsfolk say she once out-argued a whole courthouse with one exhibit binder. She says the binder did the talking. Both are true.

Worldwide Access — Atticus Bradstreet McDermott greets readers in Florence and 38,000 cities beyond. Full directory.
