CHAPTER ONE
It was only a dream. Eddie Taylor would like to have finished it, but the bar of morning sunlight poking in under the window shade pried his eyes open. The dream fled. Eddie kicked off the sheet, swung his feet to the floor, and groped under the bed for his tennis shoes.

“You awake, Eddie?”
“I’m awake, Dad,” Eddie answered.
“Breakfast’s ready. Get washed and dressed.”
