FRANCESCA HELD HER breath as she watched the scene unfold. The grayscale infrared image of the thirty-five-foot cruiser filled the screen. The bow wave rippled and jumped as the boat pushed through the water. The three occupants were on the compass bridge of the yacht. Suddenly, the glow of the helicopter obscured half the screen. Its nose rocked upward as it braked to a hover over the cruiser’s bow. In the same instant, four soldiers slid down ropes to the deck. The occupants scattered, and there was a flash of gunfire from one of them. The fire was returned, and the occupant flew backward and lay still on the deck. The other two huddled in a corner. They were quickly surrounded. Francesca cringed at the efficient ferocity of the attack. She sat at the boardroom table with Lacey and Ahmed. Kenny and Timmy had worked together to coordinate the hijacking. They sat back and shared a collective sigh. “Wow,” Timmy said. “They’re good.” “Some of the best,” Kenny said. “They have to go through hell to earn those berets.”
