If you are French, in Los Angeles, and want a
housecall, you call a French lady, Veronique Mastey. How she acquired this
business is a mystery, but it is not trivial because I’ve made dozens of visits
for her.
This year I returned to a mansion in Pacific
Palisades to care for a member of Johnny Hallyday’s entourage. I doubt if the
name rings a bell, so I must add that Johnny Hallyday is the greatest rock star
you have never heard of. He’s been an idol in France since the 1960s, selling
over 100 million records, 18 platinum.
