Somewhere in the Dallas, Texas area is the setting
in this tale that opens with Keller at a party. Not that Keller is the party type by any
stretch of the imagination. Keller is on a reconnaissance mission because,
though he had seen a picture when he got the assignment in the old man’s study
back in White Plains, he needs to see the target where he lives. The mission
has to be done correctly or folks start losing confidence in him and that would
be a bad thing.
So, that means he attends a party and drifts around
considering the lifestyle of the target. The target lives very well indeed and
Keller notes all as he drifts around the property. He notices everything around
him including the child swimming alone and unsupervised in the huge pool. A
child he does not think any more about until he realizes the child never got
out and that means he has to have sunk to the bottom depths of the pool. Keller’s
actions in the next few seconds will change everything in this complicated
tale.
This is another good story featuring the complicated
character of Keller, plenty of action, and a mystery that does not become clear
until the final lines. Simply good from start to finish and very well worth
your time.
