In Washington, D.C., Adam Warner was summoned from a meeting to take an urgent telephone call from New York.
District Attorney Robert Di Silva was on the phone. He was jubilant. "The special grand jury just returned the indictments we asked for. Every one of them! We're all set to move." There was no response. "Are you there, Senator?"
"I'm here." Adam forced enthusiasm into his voice. "That's great news."
"We should be able to start closing in within twenty-four hours. If you can fly up to New York, I think we should have a final meeting tomorrow morning with all the agencies so we can coordinate our moves. Can you do that, Senator?"
"Yes," Adam said.
"I'll make the arrangements. Ten o'clock tomorrow morning."
"I'll be there." Adam replaced the receiver.
The special grand jury just returned the indictments we asked for. Every one of them!
Adam picked up the telephone again and began to dial.
