‘Oh.’ Her expression softened. She smiled at her grandfather. ‘Yes. That was before our trip to Italy.’

‘Where did Strauss go?’ said Reid.

‘We have some mutual friends in the Rhône region,’ said Anna. ‘He was supposed to be staying at their farm until I returned to Zurich.’ A sad light dawned in her eyes. ‘He was going to join me there.’

‘How did they find him?’ I said.

‘I can only guess that he went back to Paris or Gif-sur-Yvette for some reason or another. The Crovirs must have been watching both addresses.’

‘Did you know Burnstein was an immortal?’

‘No,’ said Anna, shaking her head vigorously. ‘It was only after Hubert disappeared that I discovered GeMBiT Corp was owned by a Crovir noble. I called Grandfather for help shortly after our return from Italy.’

‘How did you end up on the run?’ said Reid.

It was Tomas Godard who replied. ‘When I found out the Crovir First Council was plotting something big in Europe, I suspected it might be linked to Burnstein’s recent interest in Hubert and the latter’s disappearance. Anyone else involved in the matter was bound to be in danger from the Crovirs.’

‘The day after I got back from Italy, someone tried to break into my house,’ Anna added quietly. ‘Grandfather took me into hiding that very evening.’

Stillness fell over the room once more. I suddenly remembered something.

‘Here, I believe this is yours.’ I took the daguerreotype from my jacket and handed it to her.

Anna’s eyes widened. She took the frame from my grasp. ‘I thought I’d lost this.’ She showed the picture to Godard.
