Death of Secrets
“He knew Nathan Jacobs; knew that they shared a tendency to behave like workaholics. So he fully expected to find the federal employee in the office on Sunday.
Carlos grinned, wondering what his old employers would think if they knew who was handling security for Electron Guidewire. But they didn't.

And he meant to keep it that way, which was the purpose of his phone call. He dialed the number for Nathan Jacobs' office, planning to tell him a...bout the recent attempted electronic break-in at EG.
