If only he'd never met Sue, Steve Bergdorf never would have gotten mixed up in murder and the case of the fusion documents. Steve was an ordinary, married father and factory worker. He was a regular guy with regular guy problems, and he was getting bored with life. Then one day Steve met Sue, a rich lady with a sweet car. That encounter changed his life in a big way. Steve's encounter with Sue gets him involved in something far bigger than his boring life - something that could get him killed. Because of that chance encounter, Steve becomes an unwilling player in a deadly game involving an enormously important scientific secret - a secret with the highest implications for the future of humankind. Steve's survival depends on the secret getting to the right people before the wrong people find Steve. Dangerous people are looking for the secret, and they believe that Steve has it. Further chance encounters throw Steve together with other people whose lives have been shaken by their connection to the secret. Steve and those people find themselves in a deadly game of intrigue with only two possible outcomes - success or death.
