Bab 5: Chapter 5

Grant Tenereth shifted in his seat as he merged the SUV into highway traffic on the way to the omega facility. Something was making him itch. He glanced at the man in the passenger seat—nothing but dead silence from the moment they’d started this journey. There was something unusual about Rafael Vargas. Something Grant couldn’t pin down.

Grant hated confusion.

He tried again to engage the man in conversation. “What do you think your chances are of finding the hacker?”

“Depends on his skill.”
