he station wagon raced south down a backcountry road through the hills of New Hampshire
toward the Massachusetts border, the driver a long-framed man, his sharp-featured face intense, his
clear light-blue eyes furious
?We knew it would happen,? said Marie St?It was merely a question of time
?It?s crazy!? David whispered so as not to? wake the children?Everything?s buried, maximum
archive security and all the rest of that crap! How did anyone find Alex and Mo??
?We don?t know, but Alex will start lookingThere?s no one better than Alex, you said that
yourself??
?He?s marked now?he?s a dead man,? interrupted Webb grimly?They?ll kill him and come
after me after us, which is why you and the kids are heading south
?I?ll send them, darling
?There?s nothing to discuss Webb breathed deeply, steadily, imposing a strange control?I?ve
been there before,? he said quietly
Marie looked at her husband, his suddenly passive face outlined in the dim wash of the
dashboard lightsWhat she saw frightened her far more than the specter of the JackalShe was not
looking at David Webb the soft-spoken scholarShe was staring at a man they both thought had
disappeared from their lives forever
