QUOTE (Det. Frank Pembleton )
What you will be privileged to witness will not be an interrogation, but an act of salesmanship - as silver-tongued and thieving as ever moved used cars, Florida swampland, or Bibles. But what I am selling is a long prison term, to a client who has no genuine use for the product.


When your characters need to get information from an uncorporative NPC, how do they do about it?
Do they employ drugs or sleep deprivation?
Do they intimidate?
Do the beat?
DO they humiliate
Do they threaten loved ones or do they blackmail?
Do they simply scrape the NPC's skin off with a lemon zester?
Do they resort to bribery?

Or are that like Detective Pembleton, sly and devious faces who fast talk the victim into actually believing that he wants to give up the information?
