.And they're still, mostly, going to be in power, either directly orindirectly.Even if parties fall as the result, which they just might.Just byfinding these files, you've made some powerful enemies."Mike thought about that and shrugged.Page 89 ABC Amber Palm Converter, http://www.processtext.com/abcpalm.html"Let 'em come."Back Next|FramedBack Next|ContentsChapter Twenty-Nine"Everybody has their customs and immigration form filled out," Adams said asMike waited nervously for the inspectors from BCIS to board the plane.They'dstopped at Dulles to take on fuel and for clearance and Pierson had assuredhim that clearances were taken care of.But after the stop in Britain, Mikewas half anticipating being taken into custody along with the whole team.The plane had docked to a tubeway.Mike wasn't in a position to see down thehallway but he could hear the footsteps approaching and was surprised by thedegree of reaction.He'd gotten shot to ribbons on more than one occasion, butfor some reason this meeting was filling him with dread.Probably as a resultof the conversation with Carlson-Smith.The MI-6 agent was calm as toast,however.As he'd said, nobody was going to hold him personally responsible forthe files.Hell, the data on the computers was illegal, forget the guns andammo in the cargo hold!The customs inspector stepped through the door and shook Hardesty's hand andit took Mike longer than it should have to process the face."My name's Pierson," Colonel Pierson said, smiling at Hardesty disarmingly."I'll be processing your crew and passenger's manifest while my associate doesa quick check of your cargo hold.""A pleasure to meet you," Captain Hardesty said, swallowing nervously."Pierson?" Mike asked, his eyes widening at the sight of the Army colonel inthe uniform of a custom's agent."Ah, Mr.Jenkins, I presume?" Pierson said, smiling."Let me just check on thecrew's documentation and I'll be with you and your.group in a moment."* * *"Yes, BCIS is shitting a brick," Pierson said when he'd sat Mike down with astiff bourbon."And State is shitting a brick.And the National SecurityCouncil is shitting a brick.Which is why I'm here instead of a regularinspector and why a Navy commander from OSOL is carefully ignoring thecontents of the hold.Satisfied?""I should have trusted you when you said it'd be taken care of," Mikeadmitted, smiling finally."But that's not the only reason you're here.""No," Pierson admitted, looking over at the MI-6 agent who was watching himcarefully."And, asagreed, all the original files are going to Nellis for your review, AgentCarlson-Smith.But you saidFullbright wasn't the culprit and the President wants that data as soon aspossible.""Let me get Vanner," Mike said, picking up the phone.It took Vanner a few minutes to run through his song and dance again but whenhe did Pierson leaned back and nodded in satisfaction."Fullbright's been acting weird, lately," Pierson said."I mean, yes, he's hisown man and he works theSenate as he needs to, cutting deals, concentrating on what he thinks isimportant.But the decisions, the votes and actions he's been taking, arecompletely out of his normal line.""The Supreme Court nominee?" Mike asked."That's just the most noticeable," Pierson replied, nodding again."But that'sPage 90 ABC Amber Palm Converter, http://www.processtext.com/abcpalm.htmlthe big one.He's stalling the guy in the Senate.It's the first changed votethat the president has had a chance to place on the bench, a conservative fora liberal.The news media is screaming, the liberals are screaming andFullbright should be acting decisively.Instead, it's like he's trying to runout the clock or something.""So somebody is blackmailing him with the video?" Mike asked."Traskel?""That would be the prime suspect," Pierson admitted."But that doesn't meanit's him.It could be any enemy of Fullbright's normal positions.And it wouldbe a stupidly long-ball shot for somebody likeTraskel.He's been in the Senate for years, is likely to stay there for years,there's no reason for him to have set this up.""Well, it's connected to Traskel somehow," Mike said, frowning."I mean, heknew to send me after this particular girl.And why her, I wonder?""Natalya's in the video but she survived the scene," Carlson-Smith said."She's more likely than most to be able to identify the perp.""There's another way to do it," Vanner said."Voice print.The person has hadhis voice modified, but you're still going to be able to pull out some dataand get a voice recognition on them.""We'd have to have a matching voice print," Pierson pointed out."Echelon could run it in a couple of hours," Vanner said, shrugging [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
