Continued from Twenty One: Fruits of the Mind Field Twenty Two: Warm Welcome The van moved through side streets and alleys, avoiding main thoroughfares. Gurung knew the city. He knew how to get to the safe house and do it discreetly. Alexander Scott sat in the passenger seat, his Kevlar vest with plates feeling heavy, [...]

Dark Horizons Gone . . . Dark
April 20th, 2010 · No Comments

April 1st, 2010 · No Comments
Continued from Twenty: Face to Face Twenty-One: Fruits of the Mind Field The night hadn’t started out so well. Ambushed while having a cigarette? That should have never happened. Rudi had chided himself in the past about getting soft. This just reinforced the truth of it. Sitting at a desk in Burma, enjoying the perquisites [...]
