It was near noon when Robert called me with some good news about Balthazar’s computer. Patel had indeed started to clean the computer, but to help h...s paymasters in Tehran he had made a backup of the hard drive.In their haste to please me and to get rid of me when I arrested Patel, the IT people threw everything including the backup copy into the box.

No slipping out to the back seat of a car or anything like that. Are you ok with that?” Oddly, there was no protest. Addie agreed. I dropped her at the pool on my way to Home Depot.

The feeling began to change in his body as he could feel his body being.
