SPOOKY ACTIONS AT A DISTANCE Anyone who is not shocked by quantum theory has not understood it. —Niels Bohr Learn how to see. Realize that everything connects to everything else. —Leonardo da Vinci We are the product of quantum fluctuations in the very early universe. —Stephen Hawking Quantum physics thus reveals a basic oneness of the universe. —Erwin Schrödinger Everything is energy and that’s all there is to it. —Albert Einstein Do not feel lonely, the entire universe is inside you. —Rumi THREE YEARS EARLIER . THE BRIGHT LIGHT is blinding. The vents too small, too high on the metal-clad walls. Frantic and nauseated, willing myself to keep going. Trying to make it better. The air breathless and heated, windows facing due east. I’ve had nothing to eat. The black coffee from the overturned mug pools around the plate of bagels, bowls of cream cheese, butter. The stone countertop streaked red. Drip, dripping over the edge. To the smeared, sticky floor. “Oh God, oh God . !” Distracted, dizzy, about to black out. Grabbing more paper towels. Aware of the obvious vulnerabilities. Even as I panic. The same ones as before. If only I’d paid attention. If only I’d factored in the data. Time. Season. Altitude. Latitude and longitude vis-à-vis the equator. Skylights. Glass windows. Weather. No equation. No algorithm to predict what to expect when emerging from my sensory-deprived day to day. To be helpful, friendly. No matter what’s asked. Or when. Or how I feel. Here to serve. No need to threaten the usual punishments. Disgrace, demotion, hard labor, imprisonment. “Oh God, oh God, please hurry . .” PATRICIA CORNWELL 00:00:00:00:0 ANOTHER minute clicks past on the wall clock. Shoving wadded bloody paper towels into the trash. Looking around at the gory mess. Didn’t see it coming when I showed up for my assignment . Exactly 21 minutes ago . Glancing every other second at the digital time glow- ing green between the American and Space Command flags in polished wooden stands . Darting about, water drumming in the sink. Four minutes since I texted. Dick is coming. On his way. “Hurry, hurry, oh God . !” My heart pounding in my ears. Making matters worse as I try to clean up. Blood soaking through the dish towel wrapped around my right hand, tucked in close like a damaged wing. Sweating, shivering, teeth chattering in fits and starts. “Oh God, oh God . .” The simplest of tasks. A mindless responsibility. Stupid. A favor not meriting special rank, preparation or training. Scarcely any forethought. Was happy to. Flattered, didn’t hesitate to comply. In fact, volunteered. Stupid! No favor goes unpunished. No good deed either. The best intentions setting you up for trouble. Which I didn’t see coming. Behind the locked door, waiting and listening for Dick. Cleaning up what I would have prevented were I not in sleep mode. Not to be confused with safe mode. I wasn’t in that. 2 1 DECEMBER 3, 2019 NASA LANGLEY RESEARCH CENTER HAMPTON, VIRGINIA I CAN’T SAY for sure when the century-old tunnel was sealed off like a tomb. Probably around the same time it began popping up in 8-pitch type as a nondescript feature on utility site maps hardly anyone ever sees. Crammed with high-pressure steam pipes and other mechanicals, the section of tunnel designated 1111-A was at some point given the code name Yellow Submarine. “Never publicly or in print,” I’m explaining to NASA police major Fran Lacey, miserably scuffing behind me on the steep, gloomy stairs. “Mid- to late ’70s is about right for when this might have occurred,” I add, as if she’s listening or cares. “That’s what I get if I factor in the data and do the math.” Crickets is her response, the same one I’ve been getting, and I turn around, checking on her, fully aware she’s not talking back. May as well enjoy that while it lasts. Except I don’t. I feel bad for her. But that doesn’t mean I’ll cut her any slack. Nope. PATRICIA CORNWELL “In other words, in the Dark Ages, when you were coming along,” tossing in a dig whenever I can. “And way back then not even NASA had a glimmer about what was ahead. If they’d known, we wouldn’t have the problem I’m trying to make you handle sooner rather than later.” I pause again for a response that isn’t coming. Our feet slowly thudding on concrete steps nosed with steel safety plates painted screaming yellow. Going down a few. Stopping every second or two as it gets warmer and stuffier the deeper we descend. More like steamy summer than the dead of winter, both of us clearing our throats and sweating. “I’m guessing some dorky systems engineer or member of the intelligence community was to blame. A Beatles fan at any rate, and therefore most likely after 1968,” I continue to download information Fran couldn’t be less interested in right now. Talking nonstop in rhythm to our descent. Feet thud-thudding. Another pause or two. Punctuated by the off-gassing of her loud exas- perated sighs and coughs. Prompting me to turn around, finding her the same as last I looked, flipping me off with both middle fingers, messing with me the way she usually does. But not really. Because believe me when I say that nothing about this is funny to a legendary badass cop known for being afraid of nothing. On permanent loan from Hampton PD, Fran oversees investi- gations for NASA Langley’s protective services. Or what’s essentially our police force of some 70 uniformed officers and a dozen special agents, all armed and federally sworn to ensure security and enforce the law on campus. In addition, she supervises NASA’s and the City of Hampton’s joint Marine, Aviation and Crime Scene Units. Plus our mobile response teams, riot squad and SWAT. Not to mention providing executive protection for visiting VIPs. And coordinating with the military police on Langley Air Force Base, separated from our center by guard gates and an 8-foot-high fence topped with barbed wire. Suffice it to say, Fran isn’t someone to 4 QUANTUM dismiss, disrespect or underestimate. That doesn’t mean I’m letting her off easy by offering empathy or the slightest hint about how much it secretly bothers me to put her through this ordeal. Or any. But if I’m really her investigative partner and closest ally and friend, then for me to give in to her problem would be the worst thing I could do. It would be selfish and dangerous. Worst case, it could be catastrophic. “I’ll take your profane sign language as a yes. You’re doing okay,” responding to her latest doubly offensive gesture, and it’s pointless to react personally when she’s distressed to the max. “Shut up,” she manages to gasp, and thankfully her current unpleasantness is predictable and for the most part inconsistent with who she is the rest of the time. But extreme anxiety, no matter how buried or quiet, rarely makes anyone more cooperative or nicer. Her mop of dark hair plastered to her scowling brow beneath her cockeyed hard hat, her safety glasses constantly fogging up. Staring at her boots, watching every tentative step as she makes her way down a claustrophobic dusty stairwell that she’s avoided like the plague in the past. And would continue to do so were it up to her. Fortunately, it isn’t. Even if she outranks me. Technically. “The reason I know, obviously, is their iconic album by that name didn’t come out until then,” I answer what she doesn’t ask. “Yellow Submarine. We’re all living on one, a metaphor for spaceship Earth, right? Which is appropriate considering what’s down here, as you’re about to see,” I carry on as if oblivious to her fear of confined anything.

  • Disability, Literature, Genre: Representation and Affect in Contemporary Fiction REPRESENTATIONS: H E a LT H , DI SA BI L I T Y, CULTURE and SOCIETY
    Disability, Literature, Genre: Representation and Affect in Contemporary Fiction REPRESENTATIONS: H E A LT H , DI SA BI L I T Y, CULTURE AND SOCIETY Series Editor Stuart Murray, University of Leeds Robert McRuer, George Washington University This series provides a ground-breaking and innovative selection of titles that showcase the newest interdisciplinary research on the cultural representations of health and disability in the contemporary social world. Bringing together both subjects and working methods from literary studies, film and cultural studies, medicine and sociology, ‘Representations’ is scholarly and accessible, addressed to researchers across a number of academic disciplines, and prac- titioners and members of the public with interests in issues of public health. The key term in the series will be representations. Public interest in ques- tions of health and disability has never been stronger, and as a consequence cultural forms across a range of media currently produce a never-ending stream of narratives and images that both reflect this interest and generate its forms. The crucial value of the series is that it brings the skilled study of cultural narratives and images to bear on such contemporary medical concerns. It offers and responds to new research paradigms that advance understanding at a scholarly level of the interaction between medicine, culture and society; it also has a strong commitment to public concerns surrounding such issues, and maintains a tone and point of address that seek to engage a general audience.

Kay Scarpetta's lover with a haunting letter from beyond the grave. Benton was brutally murdered in Cornwell's last novel, and Kay, her police buddy Capt. Pete Marino, and her niece Lucy are still trying to come to terms with his death. They don't need this just- delivered letter, written by Benton a Black Notice ago, to stir up their emotions. Benton is never far from their thoughts. In fact, his absence has become an overwhelming presence in their lives. So, when Christmas roles around, Kay finds herself even more depressed and turns to her work for a diversion. When a decomposed body arrives in Richmond Terminal in a container on a cargo ship from Belgium, Kay goes into high gear. Her initial autopsy finds no cause of death or ID, so the corpse remains a "black notice," or unidentified body. Kay has little to go on besides a strange tattoo on the body and a message scrawled on the container: "Bon voyage, le loup-garou" Le loup garou is French for the werewolf. Mon dieu! As if this bizarre case is not enough to handle, Kay must confront a new Police chief, Diane Bray, who demotes her pal Marino and wants her fired. She must also deal with Black Notice new female detective who's particularly good at messing up a crime scene. Then there's the situation with Lucy, an agent for the Black Notice of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms in Miami, who's working on a dangerous drug smuggling case, and still angry about Benton's death is ripe for a fight and maybe a little trigger-happy as well.
