CHAPTER TWENTY-SEVEN

SOMETIMES THE VOICES in Vincenzio Marrese’s head came in snippets and sometimes in full sentences, but rarely were they as clear as they were the moment Mironov and the captive left the room. He knew instinctively that the clarity was a testament to the importance of the information being imparted.

His eyes widened in the flickering candlelight as the Masters gave him both revelation and instruction. Marrese focused with all his willpower because he knew none of it would be repeated.

When the voices finally departed, a line of sweat ran down his forehead and soaked into his brow. The information that had been delivered was shocking: the American had been hiding something from them, and had it not been revealed, it could have brought down the entire operation.

When the voices departed, a smile broke over Marrese’s face. A crisis had been averted. Nothing could change the course of destiny.

Zane was just drifting off to sleep when the men burst into the room. Despite his groggy state, he was able to count three of them as soon as the light turned on. Two of them restrained him, while another pushed up Zane’s sleeve and examined his arm. After finding what he was looking for, the man pulled out a radio, pressed a button on the side, and spoke in Russian. The voice that answered was that of Alexander Mironov.

After listening for a few seconds, the man placed the radio back in his pocket and removed a small black pouch from his jacket. Zane watched as he unzipped it, displaying the contents. Inside were two things he hadn’t expected to see—a syringe and a scalpel.

Zane squirmed as the man lifted the syringe and pressed it against his bicep. A second later the point of the needle disappeared into his flesh.

About a minute later, just as he realized what the men were doing, everything began to fade to black.
