The Covenant of Genesis
“As Rothschild had promised - or threatened - one of the first items on her agenda as the newly appointed Director of the IHA was to hold a formal inquiry into the events in Indonesia. But it had already expanded to cover what had happened the previous evening in the United Nations’ own headquarters. And Nina suspected that no matter what she said, Rothschild would find a way to make it reflect badly upon her.
At least she had heard from Chase, however briefly. But she hadn’t understood what had... happened to him - all he’d said was that he was flying back to New York from Cuba. Cuba? But the important thing was that he was coming home.
Not in time to attend the inquiry, though. Another black mark against her in Rothschild’s book.
