Chapter Thirty-five WORLD END: T-minus 151 days, 23 hours, and 0 minutes 7 Rideau Gate, Ottawa, Ontario William Carter was seated, his hands resting lightly on the arms of the drawing room chair. The immense, shattering reality of the confession did not hit him as a scream, or a wave of physical pain. It hit him as a profound, geometric silence. The world, already filtered by exhaustion and pain, suddenly went still. It was as if a projectionist had stopped the film mid-fram

Had to give our resident Giraffe loving, Half-Australian, pastry chef a fitting match after the whole Kyle thing.

I do enjoy the fact that Alex is genuinely not nearly as smooth as he thinks he is. Brian's going to have to teach him a lesson from the Alec Stoker school of bringing your boyfriend into line.:

Chapter 8: The Christmas Formal The silence in the executive rental was broken only by the rhythmic splash of water from the vast, pristine marble bathroom. The high-stakes surveillance mission of the Christmas Formal was about to begin, and it started, absurdly, with a domestic ritual: getting dressed. Alex, freshly shaved and smelling of expensive cologne, was folding a crisp, white dress shirt on his bed. He was calm, focused, treating the event with the meticulous precision of an op

Depends on how much alike he is with his father.

Chapter Thirty-five WORLD END: T-minus 151 days, 23 hours, and 0 minutes Kingston, Ontario The black Jeep Wrangler was already moving. Andrew had no time to sit and process the devastating truth he had uncovered. He was now racing along the dark highway, heading back to Ottawa with a political time bomb in his mind. He drove with cold, lethal control, every movement of the wheel managed by sheer discipline, his injured side protesting with a constant, dull throb but he d

I don't know if Brian would agree

He is the quintessential Lion in Winter, his eye is on the future, his legacy and his decedents. Tommy is that future, and he views all the boys as his grand-kids, and by extension Will, and Peter. His relationship with Peter, or more specifically Peter's long term friendship with Becky, his daughter goes all the way back to Carter's Recourse. He's been the antagonist of one of the books already, he's been Will's boss in Breach, and now he's a family friend. It's interesting to see his evolution as well over the books.

Chapter 7: The Quartermaster's Menu The front door chime—a polite, low Westminster tone—announced the evening’s final delivery. Alex, now dressed in a fresh silk robe, walked to the door. Standing on the porch was Gideon, a man whose appearance defined discreet capability. He wore a perfectly tailored charcoal suit, gloves, and a thin, expensive watch. He carried no obvious weapons, only a small, leather-bound attaché case and a large, velvet-draped trolley that looked suspiciously li

There needs to be a snow storm before there can be a real Christmas.

not by a long shot, right now the Order have been polite. Next book they go Kinetic. Third book Enrico get's involved and things go thermonuclear. Should be a wild ride.

Some things need to be earned. Will has been slowly moving towards this eventual goal, from the Call-center through to Avery-Woods, into politics. I wanted his rise to feel earned, he's been lucky along the way, but also he's fought hammer tooth and tongs to this level of politics. Let's see if he can go the last mile. 4 More chapters to go.

Chapter Thirty-four WORLD END: T-minus 151 days, 8 hours, 0 minutes CBC NEWS - BREAKING REPORT The low, familiar theme music of CBC News, usually measured, surged with frantic urgency. A digital chime sliced through the quiet air. The screen of the wall-mounted television, which Lisa had been monitoring, flashed the graphic: BREAKING NEWS: PRIME MINISTER REQUESTS FOR PARLIAMENT TO BE PROROGUED. Rosemary Barton, looking grim, faced the camera. "We are interrupting t

Sitting on ten chapters of this so far, so no pressure. Then I have three more book ideas, so as long as my fingers hold up, and they can wait for me to type as fast as I can, they should be satisfied.

Chapter 6: The Cleaner Alex ran until the cold air burned his lungs and the adrenaline felt like battery acid in his veins. He didn't slow down until he hit the high, frozen bank of the river path, where the thick stand of cedars finally offered acoustic and visual cover. He was miles from the Independent Grocers, but the memory of the two Agridyne agents, lost in the chip bag avalanche, was still vivid. He slowed to a fast, tactical walk, shedding the improvised uniform. He folded the
