Prologue

The White House
Richmond, Virginia
March, 1999

“Are you sure Ben Raines is dead?” President Addison asked the agent.

“Yes, sir. Positive. He was hit three times in the chest area with M-16 rounds. Then he fell off a
mountain. The man is dead. No human could have lived through that."

“Where was this?"

“Montana, sir. The man is dead."

“I've heard that before. Ben Raines is hard to kill.” The president dismissed the agent and whirled
around in his chair, looking out the window. Alone in the Oval Office, Addison's thoughts were as mixed
as they were many.

Ben Raines finally dead. Finally. Funny, I should be experiencing some ... some sort of glow of victory.
But I don't. I met him; I rather liked him. I wish to God we could have reached some sort of agreement,
for I don't believe he was ever an enemy of the people.
