By the time the sun started setting again, painting the sky in shades of pink and gold and orange, they were lying on the beach with a blanket spread beneath them.

"Three days down," Eve said, her head on his chest, her hand over his heart. "Eleven more to go."

Dimitri didn't respond. Just held her closer and listened to the sound of her breathing matching his own, the rhythm of the waves matching the rhythm of their heartbeats.

For now, there was just this. The island. The woman in his arms. T

    "What did he say?" she asked."That he'd see what he could do.""And?""He did." Dante's voice was rough. "The pills in the first week were his. A supply he found. The doctor on the phone that night was his. The reversal compound, the one that cured you, that was his too. He wouldn't tell me where it came from.""Dimitri did that.""Yes.""For me.""I think so."She pressed her fingers against her mouth. She did not know what she felt. It was a great, tangled, formless thing, with gratitude at the center of it, and something older underneath that she did not want to look at."Why?" she whispered. "He never wanted me.""I don't know.""He never....""Isabella." Dante said it quietly. "I don't know why. I only know he did it."She was silent. The sea went on moving."You hate him," she said at last."Yes.""And you called him anyway.""Yes.""What did it cost you?"He did not answer."Dante.""He asked for a price.""What price?"For a long moment he said nothing at all. The stars wheel

    "We believe so.""Then she is a very interesting woman," the Director said. "She has lived eight years inside a rival's experiment. She has been taken out of it whole. I want to know everything she knows. Where she goes. Whom she trusts. What she remembers.""Of the pills?""Of everything."Catherine nodded slowly. She did not ask why. She had learned, a long time ago, that the Director's questions were not requests for information. They were declarations of interest, and the person at the other end of one did not ask what the interest was."Find her," the Director said.The gray screen went black.One by one, the others followed.Catherine sat alone in the silent room with her cold tea and the dead monitors. A thin gray light had begun to show at the edge of the blackout shade. Somewhere beyond it, Rome was waking, with its bells and its buses and its slow, ancient indifference.She picked up her phone."It's me," she said, when it was answered. "Begin the watch. Everything on the Th

    "He is a spent one." The voice did not rise. "He no longer has anything to give us. We do not waste resources on the dead. If Valentino chooses to carry him, that is Valentino's burden.""He knows too much.""He knows what he was permitted to know. A few addresses. Some names. Nothing that matters." There was a pause. "If he is a danger, he is a small one. Dimitri Valentino is a large one. We have been treating the wrong man as the problem."James cleared his throat. "Dimitri Valentino has now obtained our Rome address, our financial architecture, and part of our council structure. Few weeks ago, through an interrogation in New York, he obtained more.""Yes.""He is dismantling us.""He is attempting to." The white light blinked. "He has not yet succeeded. Aleksandra. You have the other report.""I do." Volkov slid a page forward. "Three days ago, an anomaly appeared in our monitoring of the Valentino family. A cold-chain truck left a depot in Naples at night and went north to Frascat

    ISABELLA'S POV The boat moved out into the dark, slow and rocking, with a single lantern burning at the bow.She sat in the stern wrapped in a blanket, with Dante beside her. The old man at the tiller said nothing. The engine throbbed softly under the planks. Behind them, the coast was a long black ridge, and the villa was a small yellow square high on the cliff.She watched it.Headlights were coming up the road. A long line of them, bright and tiny, winding along the shore like a string of beads. They stopped at the gate. Doors opened. Figures moved through the beams."That's my father," she said.Dante didn't answer."I know his car. I'd know it anywhere." She watched the lights spread across the grounds. "I thought I'd feel something. When I saw it.""What do you feel?"She thought about it honestly."Sad," she said. "And free. Both. At the same time." She pulled the blanket tighter. "Is that wrong?""No.""I love him.""I know.""I think he loves me. I think he always did. He ju

    The glass crazed and held. He ducked, swerved, and put his foot down. The SUV leapt forward. Another shot clipped the wing mirror and snapped it off. A third punched through the door panel and lodged somewhere in the seat beside him.He took the next bend at eighty. The tires screamed. The cars behind him fell back, then came on again, relentless.There was a track. He knew there was a track. He had driven this road four times in the last week, memorizing every turning, and a quarter of a mile ahead, on the seaward side, a rough service road dropped away between two stone walls toward the rocks.He saw it at the last second.He wrenched the wheel. The SUV skidded sideways, hit the verge, and plunged down the track with a shriek of metal. Branches whipped the windscreen. The rear end slewed. He fought it back straight and hit the brakes and the vehicle slid to a stop in the wet scrub, thirty meters below the road.He sat for two seconds with his hands on the wheel.Then something hot a

    "Don't be." Dante rose and crossed to the window. The sea beyond the glass was the color of slate, and the rain made long gray lines across it. "You did what you had to do. She's alive because of it."Luca said nothing."How long?""An hour. Perhaps less.""Where are they?""Both cars are Russo. I recognized a plate. There may be more behind them." Luca hesitated. "And the others. The ones with no plates.""Valentino.""Maybe."Dante nodded slowly. He stood with his hands behind his back and looked at the sea. He had known, without wanting to, that this day would come. A man did not take a Russo daughter out of a guarded estate and expect to be left alone for long."The boat?" he asked."Ready. The old man in the cove has had it fueled for days.""And the steps?""The cliff stairs are clear. They end at the beach.""Can she walk them?"Luca looked at the bedroom door. His face softened, just slightly. "She'll insist.""Then she walks.""And the case?""It goes with us. All of it." Dan
