REALIZATION
Melide, Spain
“Cade!” Jana screamed. “It’s Latent. It’s Director Latent. Don’t you see? Jarrah is going to take out the director of the FBI. He knows Latent and I are close, and he’d view it as a way to hurt me and cripple the bureau. He already took out most of the CIA, and now he’s after the organization that has thwarted him at every level!”
“Latent?” Cade said. “Oh my God.”
“What? Do you know something? Where is he?”
“He was to be the keynote speaker today at the International Law Enforcement Trainers’ Association convention. We talked last night.”
Jana yanked at her hair.
“He’s out in the open! You have to get Uncle Bill to call him right now.”
“Way ahead of you,” Cade said as his cellphone dropped from his hands.
He dashed out of his office and into the cavernous NSA operations center.
“Uncle Bill!” he yelled.
But Cade had no way of knowing that at that moment, Stephen Latent, followed by an entourage of FBI agents and media personnel, was pushing open a set of glass double doors that led from the Jacob Javits Convention Center and out onto Eleventh Avenue.
