...While Seyfarth and Hamden splinter off to investigate the Pfoho option, Sprow heads to Quincy for more “pre-gaming,” as she calls it. FM wonders when the freakin’ game starts.

As the peace process has stuttered on, even its enemies accepted it should be strong - to keep potential rebels in line and to stop weapons being turned to street crime...
