CHAPTER 1 - QUIET RELAXATIONS Blayne stared over the vast ocean of death before him. He couldn't believe had happened in the last six months. It made his fight with Bolas seem like a minor dispute.

I don't mind telling you that it saved me several hundred dollars in New York City plumbers' bills when I was editing the manuscript."
