PROLOGUE

Five years earlier . . .

Harlan Rancourt stood in the shadows of the night-darkened alley and watched the medics carry his father’s body out of the wreckage. The explosion had demolished an entire corner of the building. Shards of glass and slivers of metal littered the street. No one who was in the second-floor lab could have survived.

If it hadn’t been for the heated quarrel that had taken place a few hours earlier, he would have died with Stenson Rancourt.

On the other side of the street the two men responsible for the explosion stood talking to the police. Harlan could not hear what they were saying but he knew they were lying, spinning a story that would portray them as innocent near-victims.
