That wasn’t a lot of time to begin with and she’d wasted several hours of it getting the boat back to dock. Annja was feeling the pressure as she got inside the rental car and pulled out of the marina. She recited the third clue again to herself as she drove. “‘Take the rifle to the place of Lee’s greatest failure, where the Peacock freely roamed. Find the spot where my doppelgänger rests eternal, deep beneath the loam.’” Now that she’d gotten a sense for how Parker had constructed the verses, she was fairly confident that she knew how to decipher this one. The Lee in “Lee’s greatest failure” was most likely Robert E. Lee. No other Lee held greater significance for the South. Parker would have known that his executive officer, Sykes, would understand who he was referring to immediately. That meant in order to locate her next destination, she had to figure out the place and time where Lee had failed more spectacularly than at any other. That it was most likely a battlefield went without saying.
