On the flight to Ongma Potseu in Gomin, several plans had been proposed and dismissed before the team decided their best shot was to break into the LyoLabs headquarters under the cover of night. It would give them the most time to search for what they were after. Blake was determined to go with them. She argued her side of the issue for the last several hours of the trip, and she eventually won. They needed every pair of hands and eyes they had on this job, because it had to succeed; the information they could steal from the company’s secure, on-site servers might give them Adila’s whereabouts. Hopefully, it would also tell them what Lillian had been forcing Adila to work on.

And why.

Blake was almost certain that Hugo and Cassidy—and a very worried Bernard—had caved mainly because there was absolutely no reason for anyone in Gomin to be searching for Blake. Not once they left the airport, anyway. Despite that, they still made Blake agree to wear a disguise that obscured most of her features.

Several days after they landed—long enough for the Calvers and Kindra to have time to run recon on the LyoLabs headquarters—Blake had learned that disguises were really freaking uncomfortable. The long brown wig itched. The prosthetics changing the shape of her face pulled. The padding that added bulk to her frame made her overheat.

Despite the many levels of discomfort, despite the ominous weight of the Beretta in her hand, she didn’t want to be anywhere else. They were finally letting her do something, and this time there was no doubt in her mind at all that she’d be able to hold up her part of this mission.

The port city of Ongma Potseu wasn’t small—it was at least as packed and populated as sections of Providence—but when they drove through the streets in the predawn gloom, Blake was struck by how dark the city was. Streetlights, storefronts, blocky apartments buildings—none of them were lit. At all. The darkness was so complete that a power outage was the only explanation that made sense.

“It’s really expensive to use electricity here.” Daelan spoke in a low murmur, but the words felt loud in the quiet van. “And it doesn’t always work in the residential areas, either; the utility companies don’t have much in the way of regulation or oversight.”

Right. Kindra had described the country like pirate-controlled Tortuga. “But LyoLabs has a security system running full-time?” Blake hoped not—it would make their job easier—but she wasn’t counting on it.

Sure enough, Daelan nodded. “They can afford it. And they’ve earned government contracts from Gomin, North Korea, China, Russia, and several other nations in the last decade. Honestly, it’s probably one of the most secure locations in the country.”

“Of course it is.” Because why would anything about this be easy?

“And because Lillian knows Mom, their systems don’t run on any of Redwell’s software.” The blue-white glow of the tablet in Daelan’s lap glinted off his manic smile. “We cracked that a few months back.
