Code Name: PERSIAN — Nobody Audits the Cat

They executed me on a Tuesday. Now I'm dismantling their empire — from my target's lap. Adrian Voss was the government's most dangerous shadow. Seventeen years of classified operations, zero loose ends, the kind of operative who made problems disappear. Then Director Vey sat across from him in a boardroom and called him a structural liability. He woke up as a 50-million-vael Persian cat named Snowball. His new owner is Minister Caldwen — the corrupt official whose financial network Adrian had been building a case against before he died. The man confesses everything to his cat every night. His tablet is unlocked on the desk. His bodyguard leaves his phone face-up on the dining table. Nobody suspects the cat. Nobody monitors the cat. Nobody audits the cat. Armed with a growing ability to hack any device through physical touch, Adrian is rebuilding his intelligence operation from inside the one household that contains everything he needs. One asset at a time. One screen at a time. One carefully managed ear scratch at a time. The pink collar is an indignity he has chosen not to log. Code Name: PERSIAN — The tuna is excellent.
