The birthday book is clear: there was a cabal of rich, powerful people (mostly men) whose fondest memories with Jeffrey Epstein involved trafficking young girls for sex—trading them like baseball cards—and one of them is the current American president.

GEIST: What is 'reasonable suspicion'? Is it an accent, a tattoo, a job?

A nudge beneath the wrapper, a thin whisp of colour. The cocoon trembles as its time arrives. Wings emerging softly. A bright hope that the sun will welcome. A gentle breeze drys new colours and invites a new partner to the dance.
