She had set it down after using it to cut the bandana into strips. She began searching for it with her free hand. But he was ahead of her on that, too.

The door to the suite had narrow glass panels flanking it. Keeping his body out of sight, he peered through one of the panes. On the far side of the parking lot sat an unmarked car, noticeable because it was seemingly so innocuous. The driver's door window had bee..

Have you ever heard of the Swiss cheese model? In order for a catastrophic event, such as a plane crash, to occur, a sequence of events precedes it. Think of these separate factors as slices of Swiss cheese lined up one behind the other.

He guided her through the crowd, introducing her to the guests she didn't know, including the bedazzled Bardo trial jurors. Many of the guests were infamous for their association with scandal, crime, or combinations thereof.
