Economic Espionage

About the Book

Sylvia sunk into the water after seeing Blount driving the swamp truck and hearing the screaming. Chin Long is sitting next to him, in obvious pain from the python attack. The truck passed by her hiding spot without slowing down. Sylvia felt doomed, standing alone in the dark Everglades with alligators, snakes, and other dangerous creatures. She crawled up when the truck drove by and started to follow its tracks, hoping to find a way to civilization. She heard someone walking toward her, and she slid off the path and into the water.

The person had a flashlight and was obviously Blount, coming back on foot, looking to kill her. She decided to become the hunter instead of the hunted. She waited until the light was far enough away and climbed stealthily out of the water. She kept her rifle ready and followed her pursuer.
