He didn't like surprises and avoided them bybeing better than the other guy. But this was different, he'd been caught offguard, and, he had no idea of what to expect. In the back of his head he couldhear Mary's voice saying, 'what if, Charles, what if?'Colonel Charles Rikker is too logical to believe that anything mysteriousor dark has entered his life. He's risked his life for countless covertoperations, and he has always known the risks involved. But this journey isonly a project, a simple trip to find an antique grandfather clock.
