Chapter 13

“Gerald, I checked the account. They paid. Make up some excuse about a family emergency and head to London. That’s our next target. Check into The Barnabas McGee Family Inn. Go with the same name. Take the present with you. Goodbye.” The man hung up before Gerald could say anything.

Gerald packed up and went downstairs. He went to the desk and checked out.

“Leaving so soon?” asked the lady behind the desk.

“Family emergency,” said Gerald.

He left the hotel, drove to the airport, and got a flight to London.

“Here’s the profile on each of the candidates you asked for.” Amos handed the folder to Timothy.

Timothy looked through it for a moment. “Yes. It says Jeremiah Montley was the governor of Michigan for one term. He badly lost in the next election.”

Amos nodded. “Yes, that’s why I don’t think he’ll do very well.”

“Donald Morrison has run in the last three elections and lost badly each time. He is a former Congressman,” said Timothy.

Amos shook his head. “He’s probably not going to win the nomination. He lost before and he’ll probably lose again.”

“That leaves George Walburn and Dominic Walton,” Jackson pointed out.

“George Walburn is a solid candidate,” said Amos. “He was the governor of Texas and did very well. He is one of the candidates we’ll have to worry about.”

“What about Dominic Walton?” asked Timothy.

Amos sighed. “He’s the other candidate I’m worried about. He’s young but has been a lawyer for twelve years. He served as a New York senator for a few years. He’s most likely going to rival George Walburn for the nomination.”

“Do we have any polls yet?” asked Timothy.

“Yes, although not that many people have been polled yet.”

“Who’s winning?”

“Well, Mr. President, you’re at 35% of those surveyed. Dominic Walton is at 25%, and George Walburn is at 24%. Donald Morrison is at 8%, and Jeremiah Montley is at 6%. The other 2% is other small parties. That’s the poll so far.”

“Thank you, Amos. I’ll talk to you later. I’ve got to answer this call.” Timothy stood.

“Hello,” said Timothy after he left the room.

“We need you down in the Situation Room,” said Mark.

“Why? What’s happened?” asked Timothy.

“Edward Huffield, the prime minister of England, called. London’s been threatened with a nuke. Also, more military documents have been stolen.”

“I’ll be right there.” Timothy turned, found Jackson, and took off down the hallway, Secret Service agents following.
