ZIMMERMAN'S
ALGORITHM
THE THEFT тАФ
It began on a deserted interstate in Virginia. The entire operation took less than twelve minutes.
The result-one supercomputer hijacked, one highway patrolman dead. . .

THE STING тАФ
Washington, DC. Police Detective Gideon Malcolm had been given a tip about the stolen Daedalus
supercomputer. Yet no one was willing to give him the backup he needed to check it out. So
Gideon turned to the one person he knew he could count on, his brother, FBI Agent Raphael
Malcolm. Together they set up their stakeout. When no one showed, they went in to check out the
seemingly abandoned warehouse-and stumbled into the midst of a deadly ambush. . .

THE PAYBACK тАФ
Now Gideon wanted answers, and he wasn't going to stop until someone paid for what had
happened to him and Rafe. But the powers that be were equally determined to force Gideon-and
the world-to forget this covert operation gone totally wrong. Yet Gideon refused to be blackmailed,
threatened, or bought off. And what began with a stolen computer led him to the trail of a
mysterious woman. Dr. Zimmerman, whom everyone seemed intent on finding. For Zimmerman's
knowledge could compromise not only U.S. security but that of every nation in the world!




"WATCH MY BACK."
"Sure thing," Raphael whispered in a puff of fog.
Raphael crouched down next to Gideon so he could cover the garage as his bother slipped under the door. Raphael
rolled in after him, standing up and covering what was visible of the garage with his automatic. Gideon started inching
along the left wall, down the corridor toward the main room. Raphael followed. Each step brought more of the garage
into view as Gideon swept his flashlight beam back and forth. Gideon felt his breath catch the moment the Daedalus
came into view.
The thing was actually here!
He could hear Raphael saying something, and from the tone, his brother was more surprised than he was. Raphael
had taken a few steps away from the wall, toward the machine. Gideon took a half step to follow himтАФ
A spotlight blasted from the left side of the garage. Raphael's shadow stretched all the way to the Daedalus.
Raphael was past the corner, near the center of the floor. Raphael, washed in white light, spun around, bringing his
automatic to bear. He yelled at the people behind the light, "FBI, freeтАФ"
A dull thudding sound filled the room, the noise like an air hammer striking mud. Gideon's instincts took over and
he hugged the corner, reaching around and firing at the spotlight. . .
