CHAPTER 26

Thursday, October 23

8:15 A.M.

Las Vegas

Craig rushed back to his hotel room, intending to stop for only a few minutes before heading out to the Test Site. After picking up some papers in preparation for a long day, he would get to NTS in an hour or so, and stay there all night if he had to. He could get all the sleep he wanted after he had solved the murder.

Already his temples pounded and his skull ached because he had crammed it so full of numbers and forms, reports, and minor memos from the previous day. And with the discovery of Jorgenson’s body last night, he felt the tension tightening around him like a vice.

Tomorrow was October 24.

Craig popped in the plastic key and pushed his door open. His room smelled strongly of months-deep layers of cigarette smoke that no amount of air freshener would obliterate.

On the red carpeting he saw a scrap of paper, a white note shoved through the crack under the door. He snatched it up, wondering who wanted him now. Maybe June Atwood had left a message pulling him from the Russian murder investigation after all and sending him off chasing casino fraud or some other equally exciting case.

The note was torn from one of the message pads found throughout the casino, written in thin lines either from a mechanical pencil or an extremely sharp point, in careful block letters.
