The town looks impressive and well planned. It must have a medic/doctor/clinic and security/police force. Alex can get the medical care he needs. I hope Wolf does not have people there watching out for him.

People in high places will go all out to protect themselves. Rick and Helen might be careful and be on the lookout for people who could seek to kill them. It is not as if Rick does not also have to worry about a serial killer watching him.

OMG--Kenny was determined to save Alex who was getting sicker with his wound clearly infected. They are very tired and worried. Alex needs real medical help. Kenny found/stole an old vehicle which just had enough gas to get safely to a distant place that might have food, fuel and medical care. But, now Kenny was uncertain of his new actions. He had no money and they are in distress that might make others suspicious. He has to check out the people he meets in case they might be Wolf's men. Will he find good Samaritans or the bad guys? I hope their luck holds out. We are going to find out soon.

The lodge could be supported by propane powered generators. It could have large propane tanks and be set up to operate easily for a long time in a very cold mountain climate. It would not need a utility connected powerline from a distant station. The cameras and listening devices could gather evidence. Will is going to be isolated under military guard at his office. Silas has lost his most serious charge of a huge drone attack necessitating a military take over. The general is dead so his legitimacy is not available to claim leadership Might West, Andrew and Yani have the time and luck to find Peter et al before Silas acts. I hope so.... However, Silas is very angry and may act too early and think he still can bluster his way through since he really hates Will and Andrew. Peter and Matt are also isolated and cannot respond to the corruption charges. Might Silas have the new Conservative Party leader claim that Will should resign. Will Silas be deluded to think he can shock and overwhelm Will now that the military has him under guard away from his friends , Andrew, the media and Parliament. He could send the number two military commander into see Will and demand he resign due to the corruptions charges of people close to him. He could show Will pictures of Peter, Matt and his son Ned under military control implying they are hostages until he resigns. Will learned of his missing son at the end of Book one. What is Will going do next?

Peter and Matt are thrown out of a military transport helicopter without coats and shoes in the bitter cold in the distant Canadian mountains. They were disoriented and lost. But, they fumble and eventually find a mountain lodge well lighted and go inside. They meet Ned who is the spitting image of a young Will Carter. He even has Will's mannerisms. Ned has no idea that Will is his father and they think Will does not know about Ned and are not opening to telling Ned. They investigated what is a high end mountain lodge maybe owned by someone connected to the Order and not a military institution. They have no way to communicate to the outside. Leaving the lodge without proper clothing would be deadly. There is ample good food and the heating works. Cameras are not fully hidden. They expect there are listening devices and that the surveillance system is being monitored in real time. Matt and Peter know they have oi be careful about what they do and say For now they are isolated and lost. " Their chance of rescue seemed very far away. "God help us all." West and Andrew and Yani need to up their game and find them. Can Yani break into the video feed that must be sent to the military headquarters and look for connections if they see the lodge,

"Mi Papa did it. By removing their only means of escape, he now controls the only exit.” He pointed to the seaplane bobbing in the middle of the reservoir. “It's a cage match now, mi hermano." OK--What do the two want ? The Wolf wants to take his men and leave when he is ready. Enrico wants to take the two boys and leave safely. The Wolf's men could overwhelm the three. Both sides need assurances of safety. But, what about the planned disruption of the world's finances? So, Enrico and the Wolf need to talk and come to an understanding and realistic plan.

Andrew should reflect on the deadly steps the Order's men have taken so far. His car was rammed in a brutal, serious chase and he could have died. Jane was killed in Louisiana.

The scared and lipless Kal'ditha has shaken up the Monteilons. He demands their sons and more. I am uncertain that these parents can find their children and give then to this bastard. This situation is messy with conflicting bosses and cannot end well.

They have made their case to the inspector and told him about the involvement of a higher up who is likely an assistant police commissioner. The two guys trying to harass Shane in the hospital were vice cops who might be in the take, They decide to find an arrest Jarvis today and take the two rent boys into hiding tomorrow. So far they cannot find Jarvis. Has he gone into hiding? I hope he can be found soon.

Enrico entered the fray and asserted his power by destroying the helicopter. The Wolf and his men have no way to escape, It is a standoff. The Wolf needs Enrico's help to leave. Now what will Enrico demand from the Wolf in order to allow the Wolf to leave? Maybe the Wolf can lie and pretend Enrico has won and ask for a plane to leave. Enrico will want the fighters and threats to leave. The destruction is programmed to happen, is it not? The Wolf might think he can leave and the financial system will collapse is going to occur. He may assume Enrico does not know about this built in disaster. But, maybe Enrico does know and can stop it?

On bastard down--more still out there The general has died and it was assumed to be a natural death. The Order's plan to use the General 's guilty actions -not knowing he had died yet--to bring down the government failed when Will did not take the bait Will feels guilt from his complicity in killing the General, What about the military plans ordered by the now dead General ? Will the military forces leave the national government headquarters now? Silas still has pawns and levers to control. Sarah took Ed or Ned away. Now, Sarah is flying Petter and Matt are being northwards and away from Ottawa. They are being lied to making them think she is on their side and this process is legal. Are these three detainees going to be brought together without yet being aware this is a scam? They need to wake up and flee.

No, Will is going to figuratively stab the General in his chest when he gets the proof that the alleged crime is fictitious. He could demand his removal by asking Parliament. Where will Peter and Matt be held? Might they be placed or hidden in a secure facility or safe house that also houses Ed Rawlins? Just hoping..... Andrew needs to be proactive and not just deal with his removal of Matt and Peter. I hope he is now ready to send a small team to capture Pierre Thorne.

I would love to see Steve , a potential agent of chaos, or Brian , the pastry chef, ignored by their guards who are focused on the intrusion by Alex, then let loose on the server farm and shiny buttons.

You said provocatively...." someone FAR more terrifying that Alex and Kenny is already INSIDE that dam, right next to the biggest financial system in the world... Wolf is going to have a bad day." I love the sound of the scary solution you have identified. Let me guess, please.....Is it a person or persons that were sent to this dam when the attack on the earlier dam was identified and threats were made? Or, might the server farm have its own AI defense system that will spring forth when it senses danger which the attack on the drone triggered? I am really looking forward to this terrifying mater and Wolf's bad day in your next chapter. Great cliffhanger!

Wow--Alex and Kenny found out what was really going on. It is mind blowing disastrous. The dam attack was a cover. The dam is powering a massive server farm that is running a critical part of the world's financial system. Wolf is going to activate an algorithm that will crash the server farm and collapse the system. The enemy will know this timing so its side can make hundreds of billions from the crash. Alex and Kenny know what is intended and they are stuck outside the dam unable to prevent the impending crash. The smart drone is disabled fighting off a virus. Wolf's men inside know they are around in a general sense but, not their specific location. Now, can the drone repair itself and wreak havoc on Wolf's plans? If not, does Alex have to go back inside when he can and find a way to manually destroy the effort to collapse the system? This is a very dangerous situation.

Cannot wait to see Will take charge and fight. He will win the public over and save his friends and family.

Silas has acted , but is not done spreading corruption and wronged charges. His agent , the General, has seen that Peter and Matt were arrested at the PM's home and the charges are released to the media. The leak on West has not been made public yet, The boys are safe but must be terrified. The RCMP guards are protecting them and resisted the offending military people taking the boys away. The General's men failed to secure the boys as hostages. West and Andrew are running to the PM's residence and are furious. They need to act wisely and not be bated into overreacting. Andrew had to realize Silas would respond to his visit. I hope they know the boys need to be safeguarded in a better protective location. Andrew will have his people reviewing the charges. I hope the Order has made mistakes in creating the charges. Lisa is going to insure Will acts responsibly. So far, his instincts are good when confronted with ill-timed corruption assertions concerning his friends. But, the media fury over the next 24 hours will be punishing. Will is going to show his mettle and leadership instincts in a crisis, especially when his family and friends are involved.

Lyn was in heaven and so was Alexander. The exchanged blow jobs and cummed in each other's mouth. Lyn could not suck off Alexander enough. He wanted him badly and enjoyed the stress and pain in his mouth. Lyn was fucked and wanted to be fucked again. His sex drive for Alexander was unbridled. Lyn was on new ground. Alexander was surprised and heartened. Brad reached out to them. Lyn did wanted to talk to him. He texted Brad and said they would meet at dinner. Can they keep the new dimensions of their relationship hidden from Brad?

I still have been blown away by seeing Michael Phelps looking so hot and compete in brief swimsuits in 4 Olympics. What an athletic body that photographed so well! He won a total of 28 medals setting records.

Some worries from the demands of Silas- "You will deliver the complete, sealed Edward Rawlins file—the proof of your husband's deception—to my offices in New York. William Carter will then publicly announce his resignation, citing a complete, professional breakdown under the stress of the national crisis. You sacrifice your career and your husband's political life, and in exchange, the terror stops." Why do they need the Ed Rawlins file? Do they not have official proof he is Will's son? Silas wants Will to claim he has had a mental breakdown. Andrew should note that someone in the medical field has leaked Will's history. He could be led to the leaker in the PM's office.

The lost Shane was found. He was absent getting an MRI. The guard stepped away when he left. The two supposed police officers visited Shane again, but he had nothing to say to him. Later, Helen looked at the hospital tapes and got hard copies. Might her boss know the cops trying to get info from Shane? Shane said he had some famous customers he had seen on TV. Two clients were cops, too. I think the high powered customers are items to follow up on. I hope Rick can find a safe place to protect the two street hustlers.

With more help from his father, Alex was ready to lead the assault on Wolf and this new huge dam. The scale of this project is mind numbing immense and other worldly. The brutal cold and winds are daunting and dangerous. Alex and Kenny are ready and motivated. What do they do first? They can count on surprise since they do not expect to be followed. Alex's father told them about the threat from international financiers who will profit from the disruption of the total system. The reason for this attack is now known. The Brisay dam attack was a diversion and this new attack is still intended to be hidden. They must be trying to destroy the electronic and mechanical controls at key points so the result is a catastrophic failure not recoverable for a very long time Can Alex and Kenny stop/kill enough people to ruin the plans of the Wolf. He must be on a timeline with an extraction planned. Kenny could destroy any escape plane/helicopter. Might El Coyote inform the CSIS of this new attack so it could also send resources to fight the Wolf?

What a beautiful, Hollywood worthy chase scenes. Andrew thought ahead and played chess to defeat and humiliate Silas. The car chases were epic. Andrew laid his cards on the table. Silas gave away his demands and made strong threats. His family and the kids are targets for sure. He needs to up the strength and extra vet the protective details. He knows he cannot hold back on the Order's people. Given the monumental drone mess, is it time to replace the General and his leadership team? Maybe. new command individuals need to be brought in. Has Will the authority with Parliament to make changes? The media might be clamoring for changes and accountability in the military. Silas is going to really go after the Carters. He so far has not realized he has at least one leak since the drone factory was blown up. His ultimate power play to force a military take over is no longer a valid option. Things might get messy. The dirt on West has not hit the media yet. Is Will going to ask why his military guard detail was replaced and why the kids are not home? What is Andrew going to tell him?

I am wondering when social media and internet erotica will enter this tale. Teenagers are connected to their phones/computers and gossip spreads quickly. I expect the school provided Crome books have filters so teenagers might use their cell phones to pass on unauthorized comments and pics. They could search for sex ed material on their phones or home computers. Pics and vids can be exchanged and some are hurtful or testing limits. There is a lot of comments in the regular media about teenagers being too addicted to online activity. Some schools have banned the use of cell phones in class to stop distractions.
