Prologue-

She stared at the picture of the escaped millionaire, plastered across the front page of the Sun. "Dangerous millionaire escapes in daring plot, Government hunts madman", the headline screamed. Trembling, Laurie Simon laid the paper down on the table, and went to the phone. Punching in a number, she took several deep breaths, then, "Rick, hi, it's me". "Honey, I'm glad you called, are you in the house?" She managed a laugh, "Yes, silly, I'm in the living room, I was going to start lunch for the kids, why?"

"I want you to stay put today, ok, something's come up and I'll be home in an hour". Damn, she realized, he knows, but, "Rick, don't you have a couple of appointments today?" "A.J.'s going to take them, I only have one I have to keep, then I'll be home. Make a sandwich for me, sweetheart, I'm hungry".

She felt better knowing he was coming, and sounded as relieved as she felt. "Ok, one hungry man sandwich coming up. I'll see you in an hour, darling. I love you."

She heard the note of recognition in his voice. "You saw the newspaper, huh?" "Yes, Rick, I know it'll be all right. As long as you're with me, he can't hurt me." "Over my dead body will he get near you again, sweetheart, now make sure the place is locked up and I'll see you in a while, crocodile". "Be careful."

As Rick hung up, she relaxed. Nothing is going to happen, she reminded herself. He won't let it.
