CHAPTER 13

RUGOV’S ESTATE

WESTERN RUSSIA

“Da,” Pyotr mumbled as he leaned over Rugov’s office desk. One finger was pressed to his ear as he listened to the results of the security sweep. Evidently, the person on the other end of the COMM was whispering. “Kak daleko?” he asked. A moment later, his other hand slid across the topographical map laid out on the table and stopped over a point that indicated the northwest corner of the meadow. His finger came to rest fifteen meters inside the tree line.

Matthews leaned forward and marked the location with a red X.

“How many?” Greer asked.

“Just one man at each surveillance position,” Pyotr replied.

“Why aren’t they moving in?” Thompson asked. “They have to know that their northern location is compromised.”

“They’re waiting for nightfall,” Jensen observed, looking out the windows at the long shadows of the afternoon sun.

“Well, they’re definitely waiting for something,” Matthews said. He was sitting in Rugov’s chair and his attention was now directed at the computer screens.

Greer squinted. The footage from the security cameras scattered around the property was mostly useless, but two shots from the main paved highway to the south showed partial visuals of several dark SUVs parked beside the road. In the last few minutes, they had only seen one person get out and walk up to the driver’s side window of another vehicle. At this distance, and being partially obscured by the foliage of the bend in the road, it was impossible to see exactly the number and scope of the threat. But, assuming one person for each vehicle seat, there were possibly twenty-four FSB agents waiting within a half-mile of the main dirt road leading into Rugov’s property. And though there were no cameras to show it, there was another group of four vehicles stationed nine kilometers directly west of the property on another dirt road. One of Pyotr’s teams was currently maintaining visual contact on that location and waiting for further orders.

Greer pushed himself away from the table. “Alright Matthews, you’re coordinating COMMs. Sean and Nik, wait for my orders, then get on the roof without being seen. Pyotr, as soon as my team takes out their surveillance, be ready for them to rush in.”

Pyotr’s face almost softened into a smile. “We’ll be ready.”

“Alright, boys,” Greer announced. “Let’s go get dressed for the party.”

TAC 1 exited the main building through a window in the study. Moving in a low crawl, they made their way to the north end of the building and then turned west across the road to the building that served as the guards’ quarters. Three of Pyotr’s men were there to receive them and show them to a lower level containing the barracks and their armory.

“Merry Christmas to all,” Martinez said as soon as he laid eyes on the racks of automatic rifles.

“And to all, a good night,” Thompson added, pulling down a long-range semi-automatic.

Greer caught his assistant team leader’s gaze and winked. Thompson was old-school; he preferred a bolt-action. But typical of many Null offices, this security force wasn’t equipped like a tactical team, so there were none to be had.
