The Pharaoh watched Powerhouse’s press conference on the television in his underground lair.

Powerhouse white-knuckled the mic in his hand. “I am convinced Dave Johnson is innocent. He’d no more kill my CEO than I would, and I’d never, ever do that. The media needs to stop hounding him and help me find Naomi Johnson. I’m committing my full attention to this effort, and I would urge law enforcement and media to do the same.”

The Pharaoh blinked. Something was wrong.

Powerhouse’s voice filled with emotion. “If Mrs. Johnson is listening to this, I want to assure her of one thing. We will find you, Mama Johnson. If the people responsible for her disappearance are listening, you will not escape my wrath. That is a promise.”

The Pharaoh grinned. Oh but he knew this fury.

It was what he’d felt when the Church had stolen his beloved, rational wife from him and had replaced her with a religious pod person. The Pharaoh leaned back. Powerhouse wasn’t talking about his CEO. He was talking about his lover. Powerhouse was sleeping with Dave Johnson’s wife.

Unless Dave Johnson was Powerhouse.

“Moron!” Pharaoh slapped his forehead. “Why would he hire a person with a French History degree and experience in mortgage banking as his CEO? Only one thing explains that, good old-fashioned nepotism.”

He held his chin. Unless Powerhouse worked for a rival interdimensional alien who’d hired her just as he’d gotten his job with a journalism degree and more cynicism than anyone on the planet. The simplest answer was probably the truth, though.

He flipped open his cell phone and hit the speed dial for Fournier. “I know who Powerhouse is. Dave Johnson.”

Fournier asked, “What will you do now that you know who he is?”

Good question. “I’ll need evidence to back up my hunch. I want one of your hacker friends to get me a full dossier on Dave Johnson.”

“Please take this as a friendly reminder from a colleague who doesn’t want to see our good relationship soiled. The last time I had an employer sink to kidnapping children and attempting to murder them, I walked.”

“Fournier, if we catch any of our associates hurting kids, you can ride with me to the police station. I’ve got justifiable ways of using this. Just get me the information.”
