  Belknap was quiet for a long moment. "At the end of the day, it doesn't matter whether I trust you." He dropped his voice to a hushed tone. "What matters is whether Genesis trusts you."
  Belknap was proceeding on instinct, taking advantage of a basic mechanism of paranoia. As the corpulent princeling in Oman had made clear, much of Genesis's power stemmed from the fact that nobody knew precisely who he was or who might secretly be in his employ.
  What was he up to? Not summoning backup; he could have alerted his armed manservant with the press of a button. Something else, then.
  When Stavros returned a minute later, he looked at Belknap strangely; a host of small doubts had sprouted, it seemed, like plant life in a desert after a rain. "Richard Lugner is—"
  Stavros's veal-white face paled even further. He stood there stiffly, his silk shirt stained with Scotch, but also darkened by sweat around his underarms and shoulders. He shuddered as Belknap held his gaze. "He—he..."

conversations.value: Belknap had struggled to keep his tone light when he telephoned Andrea's friend Walter Sachs at the hedge fund for which she used to work. It was crucial not to scare him off. Andrea had trusted him. Belknap would have to as well.
  Belknap had agreed to meet him in the place he suggested, which turned out to be some sort of natural-foods eatery in Greenwich, Connecticut. To judge from the sparse number of customers, its offerings left something to be desired. Taking a seat toward the back, Belknap kept an eye out for a man in a green linen jacket.

conversations.value: Her husband and their adopted son had changed as well. As unlike as Todd and Brandon were, they had forged a relationship that she could not have anticipated. Brandon had, in some sense, lost his childhood, Todd his adulthood, and that made them fellow mourners for a while, and yet there was more to it than that. Nobody could keep up with Brandon intellectually, of course, but his emotional maturity—his basic kindness, his perceptiveness—was also remarkable, and enabled him to recognize something in Todd that was hidden from most people. The boy recognized Todd's vulnerability and ardor and desire to nurture, and he responded to it with his own vulnerability and ardor and need to be nurtured. A boy had found a father; a man had found a son.
  Andrea was silent. Her mind filled with an image from her trip last month. It was of an Arawak mother—long, lustrous black hair, haunted, luminous eyes—cradling her baby in her arms. The nurse who had accompanied Andrea as she toured the clinic in Santa Rosa told her quietly that the baby had died only minutes earlier of diphtheria; they hadn't had the heart to tell the mother yet.
  Andrea's eyes had filled with tears. Then the mother looked up at her and caught her expression, and realized what Andrea had been told. Her baby was no more. A soft wail emerged from the mother's throat, the sound of purest grief.
