            Anthony climbed over the balcony and dropped to the ground below.   

            Ahead, FBI agents and an ambulance crowded the mansion’s driveway.  Although the agents looked at Anthony curiously as he approached, none attempted to stop him. 

            Valdez had granted him leave, but it would not be long before she would come calling.     

            Beyond the driveway, around the stone pillar, Lisa waited in the Explorer.  He got inside and kissed her lustily.

            “Nice to see you, too,” she said.  “All in one piece.”

            “Let’s get out of here, sweetheart.”

            She started to twist the key in the ignition, paused.  “Did you get it?”

            “We’ll see in a minute.”

            “What about Mike?”

            “I’m sure he’ll be hitching a ride with Valdez.” 

            As she made a U-turn and sped away from the estate, he grabbed his notebook computer out of the duffel and powered it on.  He plugged the flash drive into the USB port. 

            The drive contained over thirty PDF files, each titled by year; another group of files was named, “Revelation Phase 1,” Revelation Phase 2” and so forth, seven phases in total. 

            He selected a file at random.  The document was over a hundred pages long.  He read the first page.

            “Well?” Lisa asked.

            He skimmed a bit more.  A pleasant chill skipped down his spine.

            “We’ve got it,” he said.  “My God, we’ve got it all.”
