Brian slid the rolling chair closer to the bank of computers in the small staging room that Kevin had set up below deck. The room was almost the size of Brian’s small apartment and contained a sophisticated network of servers with a wall of computer screens. Tyrell had volunteered to take a stroll along the shops. He was taking photos and keeping an eye out for anyone who might appear suspicious. While they didn’t believe anyone knew about Tyrell, they decided it would be good to have him keep an eye out just in case.

Brian had quietly explained what had happened the previous two days while they cleaned up the dishes. When they were finished, they returned to the salon to find the women sound asleep. A soft, concerned smile curved Brian’s lips when he saw the dark shadows under Makayla’s eyes.

Brian and he had met during one of Brian’s first assignments three years ago. Kevin, flush with his newly acquired wealth, had been targeted by an unscrupulous organization upset by having been shut down by him.

British Intelligence, working with the US Government, had been afraid that if Kevin fell into the wrong hands, he could become a liability. The British had asked for assistance in protecting Kevin. When a report had come through that the young, wealthy software magnate had been targeted while on vacation in Thailand, the British had asked for assistance. Since Brian had previously been assigned in Thailand, Brian had shadowed him. The organization had followed through on the reported threat. Brian had thwarted the kidnapping attempt, and had ended up taking the bullet meant for Kevin.
