Excerpt from Book Spencer is holding two fingers against a pulsing wound in Marks neck. As the train races through the French countryside at over 150 miles per hour, hes trying to plug the carotid artery because if he doesnt, Mark dies. Anthony watches from above. If there are screams Anthony doesnt hear them; if the sound of wind rushing by the broken window is loud, he doesnt register it. The terrorist is bound, hogtied on the floor. Mark groans. Anthony feels as if the people lying there below him are the only other people in the world. The carpet is covered in blood. It is astoundingly quiet.
