Today’s excerpt is from Sedona
Chip, Book #9 of the Janitors Series.
Plans for building to house fake computer get a name, which leads to a
bit of humor. Enjoy and have a wonderful
day.

Janet
shook her head. “Remember, we just need
to get the thing started. Don’t want to
put the finishing touches on it until we know the spy is here. And for him to be here, we have to lure him
in. So really, your contractor just has
to get started, then leave a small crew here, to slow-walk the construction
until the spy arrives.”
John
nodded and asked, “How will we know when he’s here?”
Boris
smiled. “We’ll know.”
For
the next hour, they all discussed the fine points of the plan. The basic building would be round, with a
balcony all the way around. After the
“computer” assembly was placed in the middle of the building by helicopter, a
lightweight prefabricated roof would be placed behind the balcony. At some point, a large antenna would be
erected near the building. It, of
course, would serve absolutely no purpose, just be for show.
The
military guard unit to be brought in would have tents for their housing and
eating facilities. Drew mentioned the
tents would have a very nice interior, not visible outside the
tents. The extra niceties on the
interior of the tents would be paid for by the Janitors. The workers would come and go by helicopter. So, too, for the most part, would others
coming to the facility. However, Drew,
Boris, and John would make occasional trips to the location by jeep.
At
one point, Arnold
Drew
tilted his head. “So name it.”
“How
about ‘Sedona Chip,’ since it will be housed here. That will also give the French a place to
start looking, once the President and General Bradley discuss it.”
Boris
reached over and patted Arnold on the shoulder.
“Oh, very good, Arn. We’ll make a
spy out of you yet.”
Nancy
grumbled, “Hush, Boris. You’ll give him
a fat head.”
