On Long Island, a trusted operative for the President nudges his boat up
to a pier, when a man materializes out of the rain and shoots him. In
London, General Charles Ferguson, adviser to the Prime Minister,

a man comes up fast behind him, a pistol in his hand.

all those who work with them, and whoever is doing it has a lot of
resources at his command. Sean Dillon has an idea of who it may be, an
