Frank faced her with a distant, bleak expression, and she said, “Now it's over. Two down, the others will fall.” Her own expression, as bleak as his, was implacable. She started back up the stairs, paused, and looked at Herbert in the doorway. “Now you can call Darren and tell him the coast is clear.”
