FBI Academy Quantico, Virginia She was in Hogan’s Alley, the highest crime rate city in the United States. She knew just about every inch of every building in this town, certainly better than the actors who were paid eight dollars an hour to play bad guys, and better than many of the bureau employees who were witnesses, robbers and cops every day in Hogan’s Alley. Today she and three other trainees were going to catch a bank robber. She hoped. They were told to keep their eyes open, nothing else. It was a parade day in Hogan’s Alley. There was a crowd of people around, drinking sodas and eating hot dogs. It wasn’t going to be easy. Chances were that the suspect was going to be one of the people trying to blend in with the crowd, trying to look as innocent as an everyday guy, she’d stake a claim on that. She would have given anything if they’d gotten just a brief glance at the robber, but they hadn’t. It was a critical situation, lots of innocent civilians milling about and a bank robber who would probably run out of the bank, a bank robber who was possibly dangerous. She saw Buzz Alport, an all-night waiter at a truck stop off I-95. He was whistling, looking as if he didn’t have a care in the world. No, Buzz wasn’t the bad guy today. She knew him too well. She tried to memorize every face, so she’d be able to spot the robber if he suddenly appeared. She slowly worked the crowd, trying to look calm and unhurried. She saw some visitors from the Hill, standing on the sidelines, watching the agents role-play crimes and catch criminals. She couldn’t kill a visiting congressman.

She and Forge got no more than a brief glimpse. They went after the robber. He dove into the crowd of people and disappeared. Because there were civilians around, they kept their guns holstered. If any of them hurt a civilian, there’d be hell to pay. It didn’t matter. Three minutes later they’d lost him. It was then that she saw Dillon Savich, an FBI agent and computer genius who taught occasional classes here at Quantico, standing next to a man she’d never seen before. Both were wearing sunglasses, blue suits and blue-gray ties. She’d know Savich anywhere. She wondered what he was doing here at this particular time. Had he just taught a class? She’d never heard of him being at Hogan’s Alley. She stared at him. Was it possible that he was the suspect to whom the bank employee had been waving? Maybe. Only thing was that he didn’t look at all out of breath and the bank rob
