“Come away, now that you’ve saved our asses yet again. That wasn’t entirely true. He hadn’t saved Buffalo. He hadn’t saved Houston. Salt Lake and Boise and Sacramento were gone, fallen to improvised assaults ranging from kamikaze airliners to orbital nukes. Half a dozen other franchises were barely alive.

It had been obvious almost immediately that fifty CSIRA franchises ...were under directed and simultaneous attack across the western hemisphere, but it had been Desjardins and Desjardins alone who’d put the pieces together, under fire and on the fly. It had been he who’d drawn the impossible conclusion that the attacks were being orchestrated by one of their own.
